Barrett became the fourth president of Florida Gateway College on July 27, 2015. Since he arrived at FGC, he has involved students, faculty, staff and the community in creating and implementing a new strategic plan based on significant growth, student centeredness and increased performance measures. An important part of the continued success of FGC is increasing enrollment and implementing strategies to increase new enrollments while also simultaneously increasing retention and graduation rates. Barrett has worked with the entire campus community in breaking down barriers to student success. This includes creation of a one-stop Student Success Center that places all tutorial and supplemental services in one building while also creating student success coaches in that same area to work in coordination with each other to improve student success. Since his arrival at FGC, enrollment has increased by 10.2 percent in headcount and 16 percent in full-time enrollment. During his 31-year career, Barrett has served in various leadership positions at four-year, community and technical colleges and has spoken at various national conferences on enrollment management/student service topics. Before his presidency at FGC, he served five years as president at Eastern Maine Community College in Bangor, Maine. Barrett received his doc- torate in higher education leadership from Nova Southeastern University. The 40th annual Olustee Battle Festival will take place Friday and Saturday.

OUR OPINION LSHA Board: First, do no harm

he Lake Shore Hospital Authority Board is off and running, but it may be moving T too fast and in too many directions at once. Maneuvers such as these are seldom productive. By the end of the month, the current executive director will have retired, and the volunteer board of directors is wondering whether to spend six figures of your tax money in salary plus benefits to maintain the position. There’s plenty at stake, and they don’t need to rush it. Here’s a little background. The LSHA board, which normally convenes monthly, had not met for three months up until Monday because it couldn’t muster a quorum. The governor, who alone appoints members, hadn’t kept up with resignations and expired terms, leaving the seven-member board four members short. At Monday’s meeting, two new board members emerged to bring the board back to operational status. The night saw spirited discussions both for and against keeping the executive director’s position. Some seemed to lean toward eliminating the post The end of free money to lighten the load on local taxpayers. But there’s a flip side to that one as well.

ROUNDUP BOYS BASKETBALL Barnhill throws no-hitter for UF in win over North Florida

GAINESVILLE – Junior Kelly Barnhill shined as the Florida softball team defeat- ed North Florida, 9-0, in the first home game of the season at Katie Seashole Pressly Stadium. Barnhill threw her first no-hitter of the season, third of her career, after striking out 12 on just 55 pitches. Kayli Kvistad went 2-for-2 with an RBI and two runs scored. It’s the Gators first no-hitter since Delanie Gourley achieved the feat against Florida A&M in last year’s NCAA Regional. “I thought Kelly Barnhill had a really good home opener for us,” Florida coach Tim Wlaton said. “Our lineup, even though we didn’t score too many runs in the first couple innings, had good at bats. We hit the ball. Sophia (Reynoso) had a nice line drive at the bottom of the fourth to lead the inning off. I think overall, the at-bats were good. I’m really pleased with the way we came out and played, and I’m thankful for the fans that came out to watch us on our home opener.” The fourth ended with the Gators leading 9-0 and that’s all Barnhill needed to close the door and secure the no-hitter. Kayli Kvistad continues to make a run at the all-time walks record held by Lauren Haeger (2012-15). Kvistad currently sits with 132 career walks, which is just 43 behind Haeger’s 175 mark.
