After Norine Noonan was not asked to return as regional vice chancellor for the 2013-2014 school year, Interim Regional Chancellor Bill Hogarth selected Vivian Fueyo, a USF St. Petersburg childhood education professor, to temporarily fill the role.
Fueyo’s appointment as interim regional vice chancellor for academic affairs begins July 1 # as does Sophia Wisniewska’s as Regional Chancellor # and lasts for one year. Wisniewska will conduct a national search for someone to fill the position permanently. It has not yet been confirmed whether Fueyo will be a candidate in the search.
Noonan will remain at USFSP to teach biology. She is also the principal investigator on a university grant from the National Science Foundation and the director of USFSP’s Advanced Placement Summer Institute.
