NEW UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR SELECTED

Last Sunday I mentioned an editorial in the Lakeland Ledger suggested the State University System's Board of Governors select a strong-willed individual as the system's new chancellor.

The Tallahassee Democrat reports this afternoon that the board selected Florida International University provost Mark Rosenberg unanimously during it's meeting, the first chancellor picked by the governors.

Rosenberg will have his difficult job, maneuvering his way through the political minefields which include 11 different university board of trustees, as well as the board of governors who hired him and the Legislature.

Hope he's ready to handle it. He's already got a full menu for now, trying to get his campus back operational after Hurricane Wilma.
