American University President Benjamin Ladner was suspended yesterday pending the outcome of an audit of his personal and travel expenses, the university announced.

In a brief statement last night, Leslie E. Bains, chair of the university's board of trustees, said Ladner, 63, had been placed on administrative leave. Cornelius M. Kerwin, the university's provost, will become interim president."
