College removes interim tag for a top official

Florida SouthWestern State College, with three campuses in Southwest Florida, named Jeff Stewart provost.

Stewart had been interim provost since February. As provost of the college, Stewart will oversee all academic programs, and he will also oversee the office of Institutional Research and Effectiveness, IT, libraries, First Year Experience, the writing and math center and the Registrar's office.

“Dr. Stewart's expertise in academic leadership makes him the ideal fit for FSW,” says FSW President Jeff Allbritten in the statement. “His ability to collaborate effectively with our faculty, school deans and staff throughout the college further enhances the sense of teamwork we so strongly encourage.”
