Castor spoke briefly about her tenure at the University of SouthFlorida. During her application process for the presidency, because of “The Sunshine Laws,” shecould not escape scrutinization that she had not previously held a position in higher educationadministration. However, she “let the sun shine in” and further explained “I chaired the damnAppropriations committee. What were they going to do about it?”In reflection, Castor credits the environment of education as the most rewarding because of theability to create change, and see the impact in the lives of the students that we reach. Castor gaveadvice that it is best if you “forget that stuff, go forward, and never look back.”Castor concluded that in the field of higher education administration, “We need to be advocatesfor fairness and equity.” Finally, Castor made a metaphorical call to arms that “We can do better,but we must have people like you. You must lead. You must become outspoken champions forchange.”At the conclusion of Castor’s speech, Meghan Greene, a second year masters student andHardee Fellow, presented Castor with the FSU Visions book, signed by guests attending the event.Jon Dalton, Meghan Haggerty, and Grahaeme Hesp, staff members of the Hardee Center presentedHigher Education students with a garnet pin to recognize them as a Hardee fellow.
