The
Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind has a new president. The Board of Trustees voted unanimously yesterday to name L. Daniel Hutto as permanent president. He’s served as interim president since January of 2007 after President Dillingham’s retirement. He slashed more than $3 million from the school’s $42 million budget without having to fire anyone. Hutto became involved with the deaf at a young age, when his father started a deaf ministry at the church he pastored.
