After the unexpected death of ITP's second president (1983-1989), Ernest Moore, ITP entered a time of transition which included the hiring of a new president, Dr. Neal King, a name change, and a mission shift toward University status and undergraduate degrees. In December of 2013, now Sofia University entered a crisis phase. "Sofia's 50 full- and part-time faculty members delivered a no-confidence vote in King's leadership, Frager said. As faculty leaders explained their vote in a series of meetings with trustees, all but three of the trustees resigned. Turmoil at the school, which allegedly has included the preemptive cancellation of some faculty email accounts, including Frager's, the hiring of security guards and a lock-out at the campus Tuesday afternoon has caused problems for students, many said."
