On Friday, University System of Georgia (USG) Chancellor Hank Huckaby announced Dr. Stanley “Stas” Preczewski will temporarily take on the role of president of Georgia Gwinnett College. 

Preczewski is currently the college's vice president for academic and student affairs at the college. His first day as interim president will be July 1st -- one day after Daniel Kaufman's last day at GGC.

"The System is full of exceptional leadership and we are fortunate to be able to call on Dr. Preczewski to lend his talents to this expanded role at Georgia Gwinnett College," Huckaby said in a press release. "His presidential experience and his deep knowledge of Georgia Gwinnett make him the right person to serve in this critical interim capacity."
