As Florida State University narrows down its field of candidates to replace its outgoing president, one name on the list could threaten the university’s accreditation if selected.
Concerns are being raised about the candidacy of the state’s Commissioner of Education Richard Corcoran.
There are currently nine candidates being considered for President of FSU, but there’s one name sparking controversy.
“Please do not vote for Commissioner Corcoran,” said FSU student Sarah Jenkins during the public comment section of the first day of interviews Friday.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – As Florida State University seeks a successor to retiring President John Thrasher, a committee Friday started interviewing nine finalists for the job as questions swirled about a potential conflict of interest for one high-profile candidate and as a student campaign emerged for another.
The university’s Presidential Search Advisory Committee began a two-day process of interviewing the finalists, a mix of politically connected local candidates and academics from universities throughout the country.

It was more than a loss for the record books for Brooklyn Sunday.
Without James Harden and Kevin Durant, the Nets fell behind early and couldn’t overcome the deficit, losing to the Bulls, 115-107.
The Nets, who entered the fourth trailing by 17, made it a seven-point game on a late push in the fourth with their eyes set on escaping with a win, just as did twice last week. No such luck this time.
The Bulls came up with a big offensive rebound which resulted in Zach LaVine burying a 26-foot dagger three to put the Bulls up seven with 1:22 remaining. LaVine finished with 25 points in 35 minutes for Chicago. Steve Nash pulled the starters with 48.1 seconds remaining as the Bulls escaped with the win to improve to 20-28 on the year, ending a six- game losing streak.
