    Item: AS-A1 COMMITTEE ON ACADEMIC AND STUDENT AFFAIRS Tuesday, August 21, 2018 SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF HONORARY DOCTORATE FOR FRANK T. BROGAN ‘81 PROPOSED COMMITTEE ACTION Requesting recommendation to approve the conferral of an Honorary Doctorate on Frank T. Brogan ’81. BACKGROUND INFORMATION University Policy 2.3 (Honorary Doctorates) specifies that those nominated for Honorary Doctorates be recommended to the FAU Board of Trustees by the University Faculty Senate Honors and Awards Committee, the Provost and the President. One candidate is being recommended at this time. The Honorable Frank T. Brogan ’81 is a treasured member of the Florida Atlantic University community, having led FAU as its fifth president from 2003 until his appointment as chancellor of the State University System of Florida in 2009. The institution underwent major transformations with his guidance, including the launch of FAU High School, the establishment of the then- Charles E. Schmidt College of Biomedical Science (now an independent LCME-accredited medical school), the acquisition of Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute, and the initiation of key partnerships with Scripps Florida and the Max Planck Florida Institute. His impact on the history of FAU is clearly immense. Beyond his contributions to the university itself, Brogan is a nationally-recognized champion of education and lifelong learning. Confirmed by the United States Senate as Assistant Secretary of Elementary and Secondary Education, Brogan has served as a teacher, dean of students, assistant principal, principal, and superintendent of Martin County, as well as commissioner of education and lieutenant governor of the state of Florida.
