Former Sheriff Named Interim President at Historically Black Florida-based College: Edward Waters College, the small cash-strapped historically Black college in Jacksonville, Fla., has turned to an alumnus and former sheriff to serve as interim president.Nat Glover, a member of Edward Waters’ class of 1966, officially became interim president of the African Methodist Episcopal-affiliated college last week. He replaces Dr. Claudette Williams, who announced her resignation at the end of February to take a job as vice president with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the agency that accredits Edward Waters.
Glover, a former sheriff of Duval County and the first African-American sheriff in Florida since Reconstruction, inherits the top administrative position at a college that confronts persistent challenges.
