PSC president tapped for transition

Pensacola State President Ed Meadows has been tapped to join Gov.-elect Ron DeSantis transition education and workforce advisory committee, along with former Florida Senate President Don Gaetz.

The committee will be co-chaired by State Board of Education Chair, Marva Johnson and University of Florida Board of Trustees member, Mori Hosseini.

The committee is comprised of a diverse group of education experts, including traditional K-12 public school system leaders, education advocates, elected school board members, academics and current and former leaders of Florida’s higher education system.

Committee members will advise the transition team as they develop a plan to implement Gov.-elect DeSantis’ vision of ensuring that every student in Florida has the chance to get a world-class education and develop the skills they need to get a great job and pursue their dream.

Several other Florida College System leaders are a part of the committee as well as Polk State College President Dr. Angela Garcia Falconetti, Broward College President Greg Haile, Tallahassee Community College Board of Trustees member Eugene Lamb, and former Chancellor of the Florida College System Chancellor Dr. Madeline Pumariega.
