The University of Pennsylvania issued a statement late Saturday announcing that acting president Liz Magill has resigned from her position at the educational institution.
"It has been my privilege to serve as president of this remarkable institution. It has been an honor working with the faculty," Magill said, with the statement adding she will remain in a tenured position following her replacement.
Magill's resignation comes following her appearance in the U.S. Congress where she was asked about her university's inaction against the growing antisemitic sentiment on campus.
