BOT appointee news

Completely random, but interesting an FSU grad and CEO of St Joe (owns millions of acres in North Florida and thousands in Leon County) on the board.

Given FSU has the most dense campus, by a HUGE amount, in the state univ. system, I had always hope St Joe would set aside a few thousand acres for FSU and future expansion.
