The University of Central Florida, which has been roiled in financial scandal for months, has a new interim president.
Thad Seymour, a developer and son of a longtime college administrator, took over for President Dale Whittaker, who resigned in February amid an investigation into the misappropriation of millions of dollars in leftover operating money for construction.
Five other high-level administrators also resigned or were fired, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Seymour, 63, who had been overseeing development of UCF’s new downtown Orlando campus, says he is not interested in the permanent job.
