ESCAMBIA COUNTY CORRECTIONS EMPLOYEES
GRADUATE FROM STATE LEADERSHIP PROGRAMS
Two Escambia County Corrections employees have graduated this year from leadership programs through the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, demonstrating their dedication to enhancing their leadership skills in the criminal justice profession.
Capt. Shawn Hankins graduated from the Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute’s Senior Leadership Program and Sgt. Lonnie Wilson graduated from the Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute’s Florida Leadership Academy, both of which require a rigorous application and selection process.
“I’m incredibly proud of Capt. Hankins and Sgt. Wilson for taking the initiative and putting in the hard work it takes to apply for and complete these programs,” Escambia County’s Chief of Corrections Rich Powell said. “Corrections is a demanding and challenging career, and it’s imperative to develop and recognize strong leaders who can successfully guide our team through challenges that come our way. I appreciate FDLE for offering training and development programs like this to foster the advancement of Escambia County and other law enforcement agencies throughout the state."
Capt. Hankins and Sgt. Wilson were selected from applicants throughout the state to participate in the multi-week programs, which teach participants critical skills to be effective leaders through the challenges faced by criminal justice professionals.
Both Capt. Hankins and Sgt. Wilson spoke highly of their experiences, which not only taught them valuable leadership skills, but also helped them network and build connections with other agencies throughout the state.
“I think it gets you ready for upper-level management, and it helps with that next level of getting a bigger perspective communitywide as opposed to focusing on your area of concern,” said Capt. Hankins, who has worked for Escambia County Corrections since 2005. “It makes you think of the community as whole and not just inside the jail, but how it affects the community outside of the jail.”
Sgt. Wilson was among 44 first-line supervisors serving in leadership roles selected for the Florida Leadership Academy, with participants representing 37 criminal justice agencies throughout the state. He was also nominated and selected as class president.
“The information that they taught, just learning how to become a leader and figuring out what type of leader you are – it’s helped me tremendously,” said Sgt. Wilson, who has been with Escambia County Corrections for nearly 25 years and now supervises more than 40 employees.
The Florida Leadership Academy consists of four week-long sessions where participants learn skills necessary to support the needs of their agencies and communities in preparation for future challenges. The goal of the academy is to prepare first-line supervisors in criminal justice organizations to exemplify the character and integrity expected of criminal justice professionals, while examining the various components necessary to become efficient leaders.
The Senior Leadership Program is designed to prepare Florida’s criminal justice leadership for the challenging and changing demands of the future. Participants met for seven weeks over a 10-month period. They studied the trends and events that will challenge criminal justice professionals and the state, also examining the leadership skills necessary to create and lead the changes that lie ahead.

The Florida Criminal Justice Executive Institute, housed within the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and affiliated with the State University System, was established in 1990 by the Florida Legislature to address the need for an innovative and multi-faceted approach to the education and training of criminal justice professionals.

THE ART GALLERY AT UWF PRESENTS TAG ARTIST IN RESIDENCE 2024 ‘TESTBED’
The Art Gallery at the University of West Florida presents “TESTBED” 2024 Faculty Artist in Residence and Exhibition featuring UWF Department of Art and Design faculty members Marzia Ransom, Jason Pinckard and John Dougherty. Artwork will be displayed at TAG, in the Center for Fine and Performing Arts, Building 82, on the Pensacola campus.
The TAG Artist-in-Residence program uses the gallery as an experimental space to facilitate artistic research that promotes dialogue and collaboration with students, staff and the local community. The exhibition’s studio format gives the Northwest Florida community a unique experience to meet and talk with artists, gaining insights into their creative process. Open studio hours take place from July 9 to August 1, Tuesdays 12 to 2 p.m., Wednesdays 1 to 3 p.m. and Thursdays 2 to 4 p.m. An opening reception will be held in TAG on Tuesday, Aug. 22 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Following the open studio hours and reception, visitors can view completed works during the exhibition dates from Aug. 22 to Sept. 26. A closing reception will be held in TAG on Thursday, Sept. 26 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
The title of this exhibition takes inspiration from the exploratory nature of the artistic process. A testbed is a platform for discovery, where ideas can be investigated and theories applied. From the exhibition title wall to the artist-in-residence studios and the artwork produced, the TESTBED exhibition is meant to be a learning experience for the students and artists alike.
Marzia Ransom is an Italian artist working and living in the United States. She earned her MFA at MassArt Boston in 2010 after receiving her BFA at the University of West Florida in 2008.

MATTIE KELLY ARTS FOUNDATION
NAMES ARTIST KELLY PIERRE AS THE 2024 FESTIVAL OF
THE ARTS POSTER ART CONTEST WINNER
Mattie Kelly Arts Foundation (MKAF) has named Kelly Pierre of Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, the 2024 Festival of the Arts poster contest winner.
Recognized as one of Northwest Florida’s premier fine art shows, the Festival of the Arts, produced by MKAF, is one of the most anticipated cultural events of the year on the Emerald Coast. This year’s 29th annual event will kick off on Friday, Oct 25 evening with the Arty Kick Off Party at The Henderson in Destin. The Festival weekend follows on Saturday, Oct. 26, and Sunday, Oct. 27 at the Mattie Kelly Cultural Arts Village in Destin.
Artist Kelly Pierre hails from South Louisiana's vibrant culture, where his Cajun French-speaking family owned shrimp boats. He spent his summers learning the shrimping business along the Gulf Coast, and his family remains deeply connected to the seafood industry.
“I got to touch and hold all kinds of marine life. They are beautiful and amazing, and I wanted to save them all,” he says in a lilting Louisiana accent.
The winning artwork entitled Transcendent is a soothing 24” x 30” acrylic that features an elegant octopus carefully eyeing the viewer as it floats across the canvas awash in calming sea hues.
“People come here to experience the marine life. It is very inspiring to me,” Pierre explains. “I hope my painting reminds people of all the beautiful creatures on this earth and that we recognize that this earth it is something to preserve. We need to preserve our existence.”
Most of Pierre’s art reflects the beauty, culture, and diversity of this coastal area. He endeavored to paint ever since he was a child, recalling seeing an artist working at a festival when he was about seven years old and telling his mother, "This is what I want to do when I grow up."
Inspired by Alabama’s “smiling fish” artist Don Sawyer and Louisiana’s “blue dog” artist George Rodrigue as well as his travels to the Caribbean, seeing his world from the land above and the water below has offered an abundance of treasure to work from.
all artists … and to everyone out there if you work hard and don’t give up, you can achieve your dream.”
As the annual Poster Art Contest winners, Pierre will receive a cash prize of $750. The winning artwork will be used to promote the 29th Annual Festival of the Arts by being prominently showcased on the official Festival poster, program guide, t-shirt, in the Festival marketing campaign, on the MKAF website, across MKAF’s social media channels, and more.
During the two-day Festival, more than 100 premier artists from across the United States will exhibit original artwork in the form of oil, watercolor, acrylic and paintings; photography, sculpture, pottery, glass, wood, paper, fiber, mixed media, jewelry designs and more in order to compete for more than $12,000 in cash prizes in 18 award categories, including the coveted Best in Show and People’s Choice Award which is selected by the festival fans. The Festival also will feature a Collaborative Art Exhibit, which showcases select artwork of adult and student artists.
A celebration of art, music, food, and family fun, special features of the Festival include a live music lineup, hands-on arts and crafts activities for children, art raffle, and more. A diverse menu of delicious cuisine served up by local food trucks, along with a wine and beer garden. Convenient on-site parking and free shuttle service are also available.
Admission is free. Proceeds from the Festival help MKAF and its community education outreach initiatives including ArtsReach serving K-12 students, students and adults with special needs, and the military with visible and invisible injuries.
Marzia’s work and incorporation of religious iconography has been highlighted in various exhibitions and installations, including the commission of a permanent piece by The Basilica of Saint Mary in Alexandria, VA, the first Catholic parish in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Pierre relocated to the Emerald Coast in 2013. He can paint almost anywhere, though it's usually from his studio by the sea, located at the HarborWalk Village in Destin, Florida. After 30-plus years as a professional artist, the 51-year-old still gets a flood of enthusiasm from the power of painting, believing that “a good place to paint is wherever I can.”
A previous Festival of the Arts exhibiting artist, this is Pierre’s second MKAF Poster Art Content win. He also won in 2019, but the thrill was short-lived when severe weather sidelined the Festival.
“This award means so much. Being an artist was just a dream, but now it’s a reality. But it’s not about me. I believe we’re

Escambia County District 1 Commissioner Jeff Bergosh, county staff and the Perdido Key community celebrated the completion of the Perdido Key Multi-Use Path with a ribbon cutting today, Tuesday, July 23, highlighting this exciting new recreational amenity in District 1.
The 8-foot-wide paved path runs along the north side of Perdido Key Drive, providing bicyclists and pedestrians with easier and safer connectivity through Perdido Key. The path spans approximately 6.5 miles from the Florida-Alabama state line to the Theo Baars Bridge.
"Today is an exciting day for Perdido Key, District 1, and all of Escambia County as we celebrate the completion of this monumental project to enhance connectivity for Perdido Key residents and visitors," Commissioner Bergosh said. "The multi-use path is making it easier and safer than ever for bicyclists and pedestrians to travel along Perdido Key and explore the area's beautiful beaches, and I'm excited to see the community enjoy it for many years to come."
The Perdido Key Multi-Use Path was identified as a priority in the Perdido Key
Master Plan, along with the Florida-Alabama Transportation Planning Organization’s 2018-2022 Pedestrian/Bicycle Master Plans.
The multi-use path is designed for pedestrians and bicycles, with motorized vehicles prohibited. The Perdido Key Drive Multi-Use Path East project extends from River Road to the western boundary of Perdido Key State Park, spanning 4.26 miles in length. The western portion of the path runs approximately 2.3 miles eastward from the Florida-Alabama state line.
This project aims to provide better connectivity along Perdido Key, while providing opportunities for alternative means of transportation such as walking or biking. With the completion of the Perdido Key Multi-Use Path, residents and visitors can more easily access and travel between residential, commercial and recreational areas throughout Perdido Key.
The Perdido Key Multi-Use Path project also includes an extensive wildlife mitigation program to protect critical habitat for endangered species.

PERDIDO KEY HABITAT CONSERVATION PLAN
CELEBRATES 10 YEARS
Escambia County celebrated 10 years of the Perdido Key Habitat Conservation Plan this week with a showcase event for local, state and federal staff. Approved by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in 2014, the PKHCP outlines conservation measures to prevent impacts to the Perdido Key Beach Mouse, nesting sea turtles, shorebirds and their habitats.
The PKHCP also protects the very features that make Perdido Key a vacation destination: the white sand beaches and small-town atmosphere. County staff were joined by representatives from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Panama City Office, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Florida State Parks, the Perdido Key Association and local citizens for a brief welcome before beginning a tour of Perdido Key.
The tour featured Public Beach Access 4, which was purchased with the federal grant for habitat conservation and beach access, the Eleanor Beach development, Lost Key Beach Club, and the Perdido Key Multi-Use Path Ribbon Cutting event. Tour stops highlighted how development and conservation can work hand in hand and the value of building partnerships within the local community.
With limits on how and when development may occur and established conservation measures, the PKHCP balances the needs of the environment with those of the economy. Any parcel that contains federally designated beach mouse habitat must obtain an Authorization of Coverage from the County, also known as a “Beach Mouse permit,” before development or land disturbance can occur.
The Perdido Key Habitat Conservation Plan is considered a “gold standard” plan by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Service and was awarded the 2006 National Partner in Conservation Award and 2017 Regional Recovery Champion Award by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.
"We're very excited to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Perdido Key Habitat Conservation Plan, along with the incredible progress we've made over the past decade to proactively conserve and protect critical habitat for our local wildlife on Perdido Key," Natural Resources Management Deputy Director Tim Day said. "We've seen great success in our efforts so far, but the work is far from over. County staff will continue to work with our partners not only to protect our existing wildlife habitat, but also to safeguard the habitat for the future so our beach mice, sea turtles, shorebirds and other wildlife populations can continue to thrive."
Escambia County began the process of developing a Habitat Conservation Plan in 2006. Prior to the PKHCP, individual owners and developers were required to permit directly with the US Fish and Wildlife Service for projects impacting critical habitat. Single family homes took an average of three and a half years and large commercial developments could take five years or more. The PKHCP was designed to streamline the permitting process; today the average project can be permitted in months rather than years. Permitted properties are required to conserve at least 50% of the habitat onsite, minimize impacts through project siting, utilize native landscaping, and incorporate wildlife friendly lighting. Permitted properties contribute mitigation fees to the Beach Mouse Conservation Fund that supports monitoring and education efforts across the Key.
Since approval in 2014, 126 individual permits have been issued through the PKHCP, totaling 19 acres of habitat impact and 50 acres of habitat conservation on project sites. Escambia County has acquired over 30 acres of habitat conservation lands with assistance from state and federal grants, and thereby tripling the conservation acreage required to be acquired by the PKHCP. Since 2014, the PKHCP has contributed $3.7 million in impact fees to the Beach Mouse Conservation Fund, with an annual contribution of $118,000. $4.8 million in grant funds have been awarded for habitat acquisition and restoration. County and partner monitoring efforts indicate beach mice are found throughout public and private lands on Perdido Key, with a high degree of population connectivity. Educational programs engage residents, visitors and business owners in coastal conservation, focusing on native landscaping, wildlife-friendly lighting and Leave Only Footprints beach principles.
Working collaboratively with community partners, Escambia County Natural Resources staff will continue to implement the measures outlined in the PKHCP to protect beach mice, sea turtles and shorebirds today and in the future. Conservation strategies such as land acquisition, habitat enhancement, and partner collaboration are key to being proactive in conserving beach mouse and other wildlife populations against the long-term threats of hurricanes, sea level rise and habitat fragmentation.

NYYC American Magic's youth sailors are poised to make their mark at the upcoming Youth America's Cup, thanks to the unwavering support of team principals Hap Fauth and Doug DeVos, the New York Yacht Club, donors, sponsors, and volunteers.
"The seven talented sailors named to the youth team represent the future of American sailing, and I am very excited to see them perform in the Unicredit Youth America’s Cup,” said Commodore L. Jay Cross. The fact that five of the seven are members of the New York Yacht Club highlights our commitment to excellence in the sport.

HILSON LEAVING FLORIDAWEST ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ALLIANCE
Brian Hilson, CEO of FloridaWest Economic Development Alliance, is resigning his position at FloridaWest and moving to the Birmingham area because of a pressing need to be with aging family members and to provide support to his wife, Windy, who is their caretaker.
David Bear, President of the FloridaWest Board of Directors, said the board has a process in place to oversee the organization.
“Although we’re saddened by Brian’s departure, the FloridaWest board has a process for such transitions and the executive committee will take the lead on an interim basis while we recruit a new CEO,” said Bear. “Brian has committed to help us in this transition.”
FloridaWest is working on several economic development projects at locations throughout Escambia County.
“The FloridaWest board of directors is fully committed and engaged for the success of our projects in Pensacola and Escambia County and will keep the momentum behind FloridaWest’s economic development projects and
current fundraising campaign, Built to Grow,” said Bear. “Funding Solutions will continue to collaborate with FloridaWest leadership to bring success to their fundraising campaign.
“FloridaWest’s proven record of success in economic development is because it’s a team effort — it takes our board of directors, PEDC, county and city officials, and the many supporters of economic development in our region to help propel Pensacola and Escambia County into the future.”
Hilson said the decision to leave the organization was difficult, but necessary.
“This has been very difficult for me — I’ve come to love the Pensacola area and its people — but my family comes first, and right now my family needs me,” said Hilson. “Our FloridaWest team is working closely with our economic development partners on industrial and technology projects at locations throughout Escambia County, many of which are close to fruition. While I’m disappointed that I won’t be here to continue our work, I know that the organization will have great leadership and an exciting future.”
FUCHS TO RETURN AS INTERIM UF PRESIDENT
JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
University of Florida trustees Tuesday brought back former President Kent Fuchs to lead the school on an interim basis, after the sudden resignation of President Ben Sasse.
Fuchs, who spent about eight years as UF president, will return to the role on Aug. 1. Sasse, who has been president less than two years, announced Thursday he will step down effective July 31 because of his wife’s health. He said he would work with Fuchs on the transition.
“I just want to offer whatever help. I'll be able to carry water and row alongside him,” Sasse said. Fuchs’ return was first announced in an email distributed to the university before a vote by the Board of Trustees late Tuesday afternoon. The appointment also requires approval from the state university system’s Board of Governors.
Fuchs said his role over the next year will be to ensure the university maintains its momentum and to “make sure the university's in just great shape and prepared for that next leader.”
“I plan to lean into the job and enjoy it. And I believe that can become contagious for all of us,” Fuchs said during the brief trustees conference call. “So, it'll be a year of fun, as well as hard work.”
Fuchs, who left the presidency in early 2023, came to UF in 2015 after serving as provost of Cornell University. During his time
as president, he was credited with helping boost UF into the top 10 of public universities in the closely watched U.S. News & World Report rankings and for guiding the university during the COVID-19 pandemic.
But Fuchs also drew controversy over issues such as a decision to prevent three political-science professors from serving as expert witnesses against the state in a lawsuit over a high-profile elections law. The university ultimately walked back the decision, but not before the issue drew national media attention and a federal lawsuit in which six professors alleged a UF policy violated First Amendment rights.
After leaving the presidency, Fuchs worked as a professor in the university’s Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering.
Sasse left a Nebraska U.S. Senate seat to take the Gainesville job and will remain at the university as a professor.
A compensation package for Fuchs wasn’t immediately released.
Sasse’s five-year contract includes a $1 million base salary, with annual performance bonuses of up to 15 percent. He will forego a $1 million payout that would have been provided if he served the full five-year term.
Fuchs had a total compensation package of $1.4 million a year when he left the president position.
The Board of Trustees is expected to start a national search for a permanent replacement for Sasse.
BEARD TAPPED AS INTERIM FAMU PRESIDENT
NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
JIM TURNER
Florida A&M University trustees agreed Tuesday to bring in retired Pasco-Hernando State College President Tim Beard to serve as FAMU’s interim leader after the resignation of President Larry Robinson.
Board of Trustees Chairwoman Kristin Harper, who proposed Beard as interim president, said his hiring depends on contract negotiations and approval by the state university system’s Board of Governors.
“I'm convinced that he's a person of integrity, a collaborator and what FAMU needs in this interim chapter,” Harper said during an online meeting of the trustees. “Most importantly, he is willing, able and available to serve.”
Robinson will leave the post Aug. 4, two days after a summer graduation ceremony. After nearly seven years as president of the state’s only historically Black public university, he announced July 12 that he would step down. He is expected to return to the faculty after taking a year-long sabbatical.
The resignation announcement came after FAMU’s controversial acceptance and then rejection of a $237 million donation. Robinson faced questions in May for ignoring “warning signs” about the legitimacy of the donation.
Trustees will discuss a national search for a new president during a retreat in August, Harper said.
Beard’s appointment would be for up to 12 months. As part of the negotiations, Harper said Beard would have to agree not to apply or be considered for the permanent role as president.
No salary for Beard was discussed. Beard earned $311,402 in his final year at PascoHernando State College, where he served as president from 2015 to January 2024.
As a comparison, Florida Atlantic University Interim President Stacy Volnick, who has held that position since 2022, earns $525,000 a year.
Florida A&M Trustee Otis Cliatt warned against giving the interim president too many powers.
“I don't want to have an interim that comes in and brings their staff, completely cleans house, and then we go through and we hire a permanent, who comes in and does the same thing,” Cliatt said. “That means that we will have a self-inflicted wound twice.”
Trustee Belvin Perry Jr. responded that he didn’t expect Beard to “come in with a hatchet,” but said the interim leader should be able to make changes to move the university forward.
“We just don't stop and pause the business of the university,” Perry said. “We’ve got things that we are facing.”
Beard spent 14 years in faculty and administrative positions at Florida A&M. In 2001, Beard was chosen Florida A&M’s “Teacher of the Year.”
PART OF PRETRIAL RELEASE LAW RULED UNCONSTITUTIONAL
JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
An appeals court Wednesday rejected part of a 2023 state law that made pretrialrelease changes for people accused of crimes, ruling that it unconstitutionally infringed on the authority of the Florida Supreme Court.
A panel of the 3rd District Court of Appeal, in a 2-1 decision, sided with two people who were arrested in March on misdemeanor domestic-violence charges. During first-appearance hearings, a judge, relying on the law, said they would not be eligible for pretrial release on “nonmonetary” conditions and imposed $1,000 bonds for each, Wednesday’s decision said.
The defendants, Giselle Romero and Wachovia Middlebrooks, quickly challenged the constitutionality of the part of the 2023 law applying to what the state classifies as dangerous crimes.
That part of the law says, “A person arrested for a dangerous crime may not be granted nonmonetary pretrial release at a first appearance hearing if the court has determined there is probable cause to believe the person has committed the offense.”
The appeals-court majority opinion, written by Judge Kevin Emas, said the Florida Supreme Court in 2005 rejected a similar law because it “violated separation of powers principles by infringing on the exclusive rulemaking authority” of the Supreme Court.
Emas wrote that while the Legislature has power to make “substantive” laws, the Supreme Court has the constitutional authority over “procedural” changes through legal rules. Like in the 2005 case, he wrote that the new law dealt with a procedural issue. He focused on the wording in the 2023 law related to probable cause.
“In sum, an arrestee’s substantive right to a probable cause determination is wellentrenched, grounded in the United States and Florida Constitutions, recognized a halfcentury ago by the United States Supreme Court, and governed by a procedural rule promulgated by the Florida Supreme Court,” Emas wrote in the decision joined by Chief Judge Thomas Logue. Judge Norma Lindsey dissented, arguing that the case was moot because Romero and Middlebrooks — who were arrested in separate incidents — were released from jail after filing their challenges.
Emas, however, wrote that the Miamibased appeals court also has received three other cases raising the same constitutional issue. The other cases were deemed moot because defendants were released, but Emas said appeals courts have “jurisdiction to decide the merits where the issue is very likely to recur or is capable of repetition but evading review.”
Nevertheless, he also wrote that a committee has recommended to the Supreme Court a rule change that would incorporate the disputed part of the 2023 law, which took effect Jan. 1.
‘NIL’
DEALS APPROVED FOR
HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES
JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
High school athletes in Florida, just like their college counterparts, will be able to make money off the field through endorsements and other kinds of deals.
While saying additional protections are needed, the State Board of Education on Wednesday ratified a plan approved last month by the Florida High School Athletic Association that will allow high school athletes to get paid through name, image and likeness, or “NIL,” deals.
Board of Education Chairman Ben Gibson said the athletic association, which regulates high-school sports, must prioritize the protection of student-athletes, most of whom will be minors.
“This could be a great opportunity for some student-athletes, but we want to make sure they do it in a manner that they are protected and not exploited,” Gibson said.
The plan, which overhauls a section of the association’s bylaws that govern “amateurism,” will allow student-athletes to brand themselves for commercial endorsements, promotional activities and through social media.
High schools won’t be able to use promises of NIL deals to recruit players.
State Education Commissioner Manny Diaz said the bylaw changes were “not taken lightly” and warned against companies trying to use NIL deals that “circumvent the process and take advantage of our students.”
Board member Esther Byrd suggested the association require students to register when participating in NIL deals.
“I am very concerned about the bad actors,” Byrd said. “Obviously, they have already popped up. We know it is coming. We know they don’t care about our rules, and they are going to do what they want to do.”
Craig Damon, executive director of the association, said bylaws continue to be updated, noting that issues involving what are known as “collectives” were amended this week in reaction to a national group found recruiting and collecting money in multiple states including Florida.
Damon said that for most students, an NIL deal would be equal to having an after-
school job, while at the college level “you see student-athletes getting compensated for their name being on a roster.”
“We don’t foresee kids making hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars off this,” Damon said. “However, there will be that 1 percent of elite athletes that possibly may have that opportunity. But for the majority of our student-athletes, it will be something local with a local business.”
The association plans to post online videos to share information with parents and students about how NIL deals operate, Damon said.
NIL deals have helped transform college athletics across the country in recent years. Florida lawmakers approved NIL regulations in 2021 that were revised last year to allow universities to become more involved in the process.
As part of the high-school bylaws, student-athletes and their families will be encouraged to seek legal counsel and tax advice when considering NIL activities.
High school athletes would still be prohibited from being paid for on-field activities, hiring agents and receiving awards unapproved by the athletic association.
Also, student-athletes who transfer after starting a sport will be prohibited in most cases from securing NIL agreements during that season.
Students won’t be able to use their team uniforms, logos, mascots or any other identifiers of their schools as part of NIL deals. Also, deals would have to end when students graduate from high school and would have to hold harmless schools, school districts and the athletic association from liability.
Students will be prohibited from endorsing services during school-sponsored events or athletic activities and can’t enter into deals tied to adult entertainment, gambling, firearms, tobacco, marijuana or NIL collectives.
Violations will result in warnings for first offenses. Second offenses would result in student-athletes being ineligible to represent schools for one year. Third offenses could lead to student-athletes being barred from competing throughout their time in high school.
STATE DENIES DISCRIMINATION AGAINST FAMU
SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA
JIM
Disputing that state policies are discriminatory and rooted in segregation, Attorney General Ashley Moody’s office has asked a federal appeals court to reject a potential class-action lawsuit about issues such as funding and programs at historically Black Florida A&M University.
Lawyers in Moody’s office filed an 85-page brief last week asking the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold a decision by U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle to dismiss the lawsuit, which was filed on behalf of six Florida A&M University students.
Attorneys for the students contend that state practices involving FAMU have violated the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution and what is known as Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. As examples, they allege underfunding of FAMU and that duplications of programs with nearby Florida State University and other universities have harmed FAMU.
But the state’s brief said that now “70 years removed from segregation, Florida presumptively has met its affirmative duty to dismantle its segregative system and has not enacted policies with discriminatory intent.”
It said the lawsuit ignores other factors that play into issues such as funding.
“Over the past 70 years, Florida’s population has skyrocketed from 3.5 million to over 22 million, and its university system has ballooned from three universities to 12,” the brief said. “Those dramatic shifts have brought with them a host of new considerations for legislators: What financial strategy best serves the state’s burgeoning population? What are each university’s needs? How many students do they serve? What research do they perform? How much non-state revenue do they receive? And how much funding does the state have to allocate?”
But in a May brief filed at the Atlantabased appeals court, attorneys for the students alleged the state has “maintained discriminatory practices traceable to segregation.” The brief said, for example, that FAMU needs to have high-demand, unique academic programs to help draw a wide range of students.
“Florida has failed to create an academic identity for FAMU separate from its racial -
ized history,” the May brief said. “That is a product of the unnecessary duplication of academic programs at other state universities, particularly geographically proximate FSU, and the failure to offer any unique, high-demand program at FAMU to attract racially diverse applicants and establish an academic identity beyond FAMU’s segregated history.”
The lawsuit, filed in 2022, names as defendants the state, the university system’s Board of Governors and system Chancellor Ray Rodrigues.
In his January decision dismissing the case, Hinkle wrote that the plaintiffs did not meet a key legal test of showing that disparities among state universities were rooted in what is known as “de jure” segregation — segregation sanctioned by law. He rejected arguments about issues such as overlaps in programs with other universities.
“The plaintiffs complain that FAMU has too few unique, high-demand programs — programs not available at any of the 11 other state universities,” Hinkle wrote. “But asked at oral argument for an example of any program FAMU is lacking — any program the plaintiffs assert FAMU does not offer today because of the prior de jure segregation or current intentional discrimination — the plaintiffs could come up with none. FSU and UF (the University of Florida) have larger student bodies than FAMU and offer more courses, but the … complaint alleges no facts that would support a finding that this is traceable to de jure segregation or intentional racial discrimination.”
The state’s brief last week echoed Hinkle’s conclusions on such issues.
“Plaintiffs contend that Florida has a policy of depriving FAMU of unique highdemand programs, which supposedly traces back to segregation,” the brief said. “But plaintiffs failed to plead any modern state effort to stunt FAMU’s curriculum. They identified not one program that FAMU has sought but was denied. And by their own count, FAMU has 34 unique programs not offered at nearby FSU, including four so-called unique high-demand programs. True, FSU has ‘five times the number of unique programs’ that FAMU has. But FSU also has almost five times the students that FAMU has.”
