As Florida International University prepares for leadership changes, speculation mounts that Lieutenant Governor Jeanette Nunez may be tapped to lead the $1 million-a-year position. Insiders indicate her reputation and ties to the university as an alumna bolster her candidacy. While current president Kenneth Jessell's future remains uncertain, sources suggest a search committee is organizing to consider Nunez. This potential move marks a significant career transition for Nunez as she concludes her term in state government under Governor Ron DeSantis.
"Everything I heard and everything that's been indicated is she is going to be the next FIU president, said a person familiar with the process, granted anonymity to speak openly."
"She would be somebody who would be highly regarded," said a source close to FIU leadership who did not want to be quoted by name discussing the sensitive topic of a potential replacement for the current president."
