New College of Florida has welcomed nine new professors to its faculty. The hiring is the result of a careful budgeting plan, developed in cooperation with the college’s academic departments. In response to state budget cuts, the college held nine tenure-track positions open for two years until lawmakers restored higher education aid. The restored funding allowed the college to fill six of those positions this year. Five are newcomers to New College, while one is a professor already on staff. The other four new faculty members are visiting professors, who will fill in for faculty conducting research or serving in administrative roles.
