Robert Rizzo
ROYERSFORD â With little warning, and no mention on the agenda, the Spring-Ford School Board voted 8-1 Monday night to halt its search for a new superintendent and negotiate a contract with the man doing the job right now.
The motion was made in the middle of the solicitor s report by school board member Tom DiBello, who said Acting Superintendent Robert Rizzo has done an outstanding job in difficult circumstances.

School Board President Colleen Zasowski immediately agreed and seconded the motion which, as it turns out, is required by law not to hire Rizzo, but to direct the solicitor to draw up a contract for a board vote.

Daniel Greenstein, the new chancellor of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, speaks to faculty and staff members during a listening tour to East Stroudsburg University this week.
(Editor’s Note: This article appeared in the Chronicle for a Higher Education, Washington D.C. earlier this week.)
Daniel Greenstein is excited, grinning, talking a mile a minute. As chancellor of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, he’s days away from unveiling the details of a plan to consolidate six of the system’s 14 public universities into two new, combined institutions. Over the past nine months, the system has held hundreds of meetings to gauge the possibilities for how the new entities might function and hash out the details. The resulting document will be presented to the system’s Board of Governors for initial approval on April 28.
