Mark B. Rosenberg (born August 15, 1949) is a professor and former university administrator who served as the president of Florida International University[1] from August 2009 until January 2022[2] and former Chancellor of the State University System of Florida. Rosenberg earned a B.A. with Omicron Delta Kappa honors in 1971 from Miami University of Ohio and a Ph.D. in political science with a graduate certificate in Latin American and Caribbean Studies from the University of Pittsburgh in 1976.[citation needed]

Career at Florida International University

Rosenberg's academic career began at FIU in 1976 as an assistant professor of political science.[3] In 1979, he founded the FIU Latin American and Caribbean Center, a National Center on Latin America, designated by the US Department of Education, funded by Title VI, recognizing it as one of the top Latin American and Caribbean Centers in the country.[4] Rosenberg subsequently served as the Founding Dean of the College of Urban and Public Affairs and Vice Provost for International Studies. He has also been a Visiting Distinguished Research Professor at The Peabody College of Vanderbilt University, and a Visiting Professor at the Instituto Tecnologico de Monterrey (ITESM) in Mexico.

Rosenberg suddenly resigned from the university effective January 21, 2022, citing deteriorating health conditions of his wife. Just a week later it was revealed that he stepped down because he had made aggressive advances to a younger female employees, "causing discomfort," and creating a hostile work environment. [5] He was succeeded by Kenneth A. Jessell as interim president, previously FIU's chief financial officer and senior vice president for finance and administration.[6]

Chancellor of The State University System of Florida

From 2005 to 2008, Rosenberg served as chancellor for the Board of Governors of the State University System of Florida. As chancellor, Rosenberg led the system's strategic development and financial planning and policy initiatives, working closely with Governors and the legislature to secure support for SUS priorities. The SUS currently enrolls more than 300,000 students, employs more than 12,000 faculty and operates a $9.3 billion budget.

Sexual Harassment Allegations

A young woman who worked closely with Florida International University President Mark Rosenberg confided to a colleague in December that Rosenberg harassed her for months, triggering an investigation that led to his abrupt resignation on January 21, 2022, according to a source close to the investigation.[7]
