Two trustees reappointed, new provost named at FAU

It will be the same familiar faces for Florida Atlantic University's 13-member board of trustees. David Feder and Anthony Barbar were reappointed to five-year terms last week by the Florida Board of Governors. Their new terms begin Jan. 6.

Feder, a Boca Raton resident, is the managing director for Fairmont Turnberry Isle Resort in Aventura. His wife, Renee, graduated from FAU. He has been serving on the board of trustees since 2005.

Barbar, also of Boca Raton, has been a board of trustees member since 2008. He received his bachelor's degree in international business from FAU in 1978 and is the president and CEO of Barbar & Associates, a local real estate brokerage and advisory company.

In other university news, interim President John Pritchett recently appointed Diane Alperin university provost. As provost, Alperin is the school's chief academic officer and reports directly to Pritchett.

Maybe he could figure out how to inspire developers to invest in more student housing near FAU.
