Halt and review FSU presidential search, BOG member says
Board of Governors member
Alan Levine is no longer “concerned” that an accrediting body may have influenced the Florida State University presidential search. He’s convinced. And he wants the job search put on hold until it’s cleared up.
At issue is a letter sent by the president of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges the association that accredits FSU to the Board of Governors
Richard Corcoran’s candidacy.
In the letter, SACSCOC President
Belle Wheelan said it was improper for Corcoran to seek the job while holding a seat on the Board of Governors. She also commented on Corcoran’s fitness for the position and insinuated FSU’s accreditation would be on the line if his application advanced.
