THREE OF FOUR UWF TRUSTEE APPOINTEES APPROVED

In a heated Senate committee hearing yesterday (Wednesday), the first confirmations for new trustees at the University of West Florida took center stage. While five nominees appointed by Governor Ron DeSantis were discussed, only three secured approval, sparking concern from locals about the qualifications and regional connections of the appointees, particularly controversial figure Adam Kissel. The next step will see the Ethics and Elections Committee reviewing the nominees before they can go to a final vote.
