“I couldn’t be more excited to be coming back to UCF. I started my journalism career writing for The Central Florida Future, and now I’ll get to share more great stories about the university with the rest of the world,”
Said Schlueb.

The Orlando Sentinel posted the below video of Mayor Dyer teasingly “roasting” Schlueb as he bid him farewell.
