UNF Associate Vice President announced as finalist for position at University of Montana

The University of Montana will be gaining a new vice provost for student success all the while UNF may lose the associate vice president for budgets and personnel, Daniel Moon.

Moon is among four other finalists for the position. In Moon’s resume he notes that he was the executive selected to integrate academic affairs and student affairs here at UNF. He also says in his resume that he developed and is leading the process for implementing the university’s strategic plan across all academic units.

Spinnaker has reached out to Moon for comment, but has not received one at the time of publication.

Then from there, he was able to work his way to an Associate Professor, Assistant Department Chair of Biology to the Department Chair of Biology. Then, in 2012 Moon moved up to being the Associate Vice President and Dean of Undergraduate Studies, Interim Dean of College of Arts and Sciences in 2016 and then to the current position he is working in right now in 2017.
