Bryan Fills In As Criser Resigns As the 1988-89 year wound down, so did the presidency of Marshall Criser. Stepping into Criser's vacant spot as interim president was former Academic Affairs vice president Robert Bryan. This transformation in UF's top office took place on April 7 and Bryan came into his new position ready to get down to business. Literally. As stated, his first priority was to improve undergraduate education and one of his proposed ways to achieving this was shrinking business classes. Unlike the math Classes which Bryan said were down to a iitolerable level, he said the business sections, as well as the computer science engineering sections, weren't. Despite arguments from some that smaller Class size wasn't the problem but that the limited number of faculty was, Bryan said that the first step was reducing the crowds and that increasing the faculty was the next step. Also on Bryan's list of priorities as UFis interim president was the hiring of more academic advisers. Bryan said that academic advising for undergraduates has improved at LIF but not enough and that fulltime advisers would solve the problem. Prior to his appointment as UF's top 20 Marshall Criser official, Bryan established a name and a voice for himself. He was nominated for the chancelloris job in 1985 and made the final cut, but he lost to Charles Reed. EVen though he didnit apply for the HF presidency when Criser got the job, Bryan was nominated by the faculty. He withdrew his name from the selection, but LIF faculty members nominated him again, which, to him, was a great honor. However, as the HF presidency once again became vacant in 1989, Bryan refused to apply. Although readily accepting the role as interim president, Bryan expressed no desire in holding the position of president. As Criser resigned to pursue other interests, he left behind big shoes to fill as LlF president. He left behind some outstanding achievements, such as UFis induction into the American Association of Universities, a prestigious honorary of the top schools in the country. As the University bid farewell to one of its finest leaders ever in 1989, it also welcomed to this open office another ambitious and truly qualified administrator to guide UF on its climb to success.
