Yesterday we approved Dr. Stuart Bell as the new president of the University of Florida. Dr. Bell was introduced by Chairman Mori Housaini, who gave a great summary of the incredibly impressive accomplishments of the university (see video). Dr. Bell, thanks for picking up the baton to lead this legacy into an even greater future. God Bless, and Godspeed!
My Letter to the Editor to The Alligator: "Sasha Morel’s June 5, 2026 Opinion piece made some interesting points. However, we should be clear that DEI, in its many varied forms, isn’t mere “politics” for our state universities. Policies governing who gets accepted and who doesn’t, which professors get hired and which do not, which programs and research get funded and which do not, are foundational policies that strike to the core mission of a university. Having students and faculty with a diversity of talents, ideas, and life experiences is very important to a university. At the same time, our 12 Florida state universities are heavily subsidized by hardworking Florida taxpayers, and most of them question the morality, ethics, and even purpose of a university discriminating against people purely based on a person’s ancestral genetics".

Interesting confirmation hearings upcoming with University of Florida Board of Trustees. I hear lots of interesting questions from my Gator Nation friends--this is the time to vet your questions and I'm confident the Board of Trustees will do a good job getting to good answers.
Our first board meeting of 2023 reflected on the great accomplishments we saw last year and gave a glimpse of what's ahead @MCO. Airports are wonderful community partners, and we look forward to a prosperous year. https://t.co/hxdabr26ht #Travel#Tourism#Airports

@tommyhicks69 Jack's Lookout! On the Marco River Marina. Sadly, after 40 years in business, the marina tore it down after the hurricane. It was the place of a lot of joy and camaraderie for everyone. On any given day you might find a billionaire, a house painter, a fishing guide
My thoughts are with my fellow Floridians as they begin to recover, repair & rebuild after Hurricane Ian. My father-in-law's restaurant in the Marco Island Marina was impacted by storm surge, but fortunately, it is being cleaned up now & they will be able to reopen this week.
@JamesUthmeierFL@CaseyDeSantis@WeThePeopleWine James, what an amazing year! You, Gov, and your team produced results week after week for Floridians, always focusing on what was right. Voters showed their appreciation. Our prayers are with you and your growing family for a beautiful New Year's weekend!--Carson
Helen, we all have so much gratitude for you and your team! What an amazing year for the Florida GOP. Our love to you, Jose, and your whole family for a very Happy New Year's Eve ! You deserve the Champaign!
@MCO WOW. Love the MCO Fashionistas! John Evans and I need these for the next board meeting (John, the one on the left will give you plenty of shoulder room!)
