NEW STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION MEMBER NAMED
The Governor has appointed Peter Boulware of Tallahassee to a seat on the seven-member state Board of Education that was vacated when Donna Callaway resigned in June. Boulware, 33, is an FSU graduate and former linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens who currently owns and operates an automobile dealership. He lost a close state House election last month to Democratic opponent Michelle Rehwinkel of Vasilinda. He was selected from 13 applicants.
