On Friday, University System of Georgia (USG) Chancellor Hank Huckaby announced Dr. Stanley “Stas” Preczewski will temporarily take on the role of president of Georgia Gwinnett College.
Preczewski is currently the college's vice president for academic and student affairs at the college. His first day as interim president will be July 1st -- one day after Daniel Kaufman's last day at GGC.
Kaufman announced last week he accepted the job of president and chief executive officer of the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce.
Preczewski has served in his current position since GGC's founding in 2005. He also held the position of interim president of Georgia College & State University in Milledgeville, from July 2011 through June 2012.
"The System is full of exceptional leadership and we are fortunate to be able to call on Dr. Preczewski to lend his talents to this expanded role at Georgia Gwinnett College," Huckaby said in a press release. "His presidential experience and his deep knowledge of Georgia Gwinnett make him the right person to serve in this critical interim capacity."

I am sure Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Preczewski are well qualified, but I have to ask the question - "will Gwinnett put someone other than white males in leadership?". How many leadership positions are there at the County level and how many are not white males? In the last 12-24 months in DOT, Planning, Law, Economic Development - all new leaders appointed/hired have been white males.
