Fuchs: Seventeen thousand fans for football games but no in-person graduation?
By Kent Fuchs | Oct. 19The accumulated risk to staff and faculty involved in so many ceremonies over many days, combined with the severe restrictions on students and guests before, during and after the ceremonies, has led us to this alternative: to have in-person ceremonies for everyone once COVID-19 subsides and to also celebrate each student in virtual ceremonies at the time they graduate.

Breaking my moratorium on more alligator statues
By Kent Fuchs | Nov. 14, 2019At the University of Florida, we have one statue of a UF president, Albert Murphree, who was our second president. We have three statues of Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier, Danny Wuerffel and Tim Tebow. And we have many, many statues of alligators.

As UF rises, what should endure?
By Kent Fuchs | Sep. 19, 2019Several years ago at another university, I met with the faculty members in one of the university’s colleges. I was responsible for leading the search for the college’s next dean, and I wanted to hear the faculty’s input on the search.
