Other finalists are Neil J. MacKinnon, executive vice president for academic affairs and provost at Augusta University; Jay Morgan, president of Morehead State University; and Aysegul Timur, vice president, and vice provost for strategy and program innovation at Florida Gulf Coast.
The candidates are scheduled to be interviewed May 4 by the Florida Gulf Coast Board of Trustees, with the new president starting the job July 1, according to the website.
The search began last spring, but it was reopened in November after two finalists dropped out and the trustees were left with one candidate.
