To search for the next president of Georgia Southern University, the state Board of Regents has created two committees, one made up of seven of its members and the other of 17 representatives of the university and the Statesboro area plus the director of the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget. The search is starting about three months after Dr. Brooks Keel, Georgia Southern's president for more than five years, left in early July to become president of Georgia Regents University in Augusta. The larger, campus-based committee is slated to meet Sept. 30 to be assigned its responsibilities.
