University Administration Undergoes Big Changes Under the leadership of our newly appointed President, Dr. Rene Bien- venu, NSU has made some much needed cha nges and has taken on a new look. One of the big changes President Bienvenu has made since taking office is to reor- ganize university administration. One of the changes made was a cut-back in the number of adminis- trative positions. Many of the posi- tions were renamed for a clearer understanding of their responsibili- ties. A number of new faces, along with the many familiar faces, were working hard to follow through with Dr. Bienvenu ' s plan toward higher academic standards at NSU. Right: Cecil Knotts.
