Gov.-elect Donalds talks humility, higher ed, college sports in post-victory speech

Florida governor-elect Byron Donalds called his election victory humbling in his first public appearance since the result, speaking Thursday at a State University System Board of Governors summit at Florida International University. He praised the state’s university system, which has ranked first nationally for a decade, and said he would maintain performance-based funding while encouraging universities to graduate more engineers. Donalds also urged leaders to serve beyond partisan divisions.
