Education:
B.A. in Economics, May 1985, Berea College, Berea, KY
M.S. in Economics, August 1987, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL
Ph.D. in Economics, April 1989, Florida State University, Tallahassee, FL
Administrative Appointments and Duties:
Regional Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs & Research, Professor of Finance and
Economics, and Research Associate with the Alternative Energy Research Center (July
2011 to June 30, 2012), College of Technology and Innovation, University of South
Florida Polytechnic, Lakeland, FL
As Regional Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs & Research of the polytechnic
campus of the University of South Florida System, my responsibilities include leadership
and guidance for the development of the polytechnic vision and mission; oversight of
$21.2 million academic affairs budget including planning and resource allocation for all
academic programs; SACS and program specific accreditations; the establishment of the
Colleges; oversee academic personnel matters including recruitment, hiring, retention,
performance evaluation, promotion and tenure of the faculty; serve as the liaison with the
University of South Florida System, as well as various local, regional, state, national, and
international organizations, and agencies; oversight of the separately funded Florida
Industrial Phosphate Research Institute; assist the Regional Chancellor in capital
campaign and development activities. In November 2011, the Florida Board of
Governors voted to transition the University of South Florida Polytechnic to become the
12th University within the State University System of Florida. Given the directive of the
Board of Governors, I was charged to oversee the three-five year transition plan to
independent status. In April 2012, the Governor signed legislation for the immediate
creation of Florida Polytechnic University and the closure of USF Polytechnic. I have
coordinated with the University of South Florida System in the design of a teach out plan
for existing students, reassignment of faculty and staff, as well as the transfer of all assets
to Florida Polytechnic University. As of July 1, 2012, the position of Regional Vice
Chancellor for Academic Affairs & Research no longer exists, thus I have been
reassigned to the College of Business at the University of South Florida in Tampa.
