After ten years of leadership at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Prescott Campus, Chancellor Dr. Frank Ayers is stepping down. Ayers says he and his wife Debbie will be returning to Florida to be closer to family at the end of the spring 2019 semester. Ayers will transition to a full-time faculty role in the College of Aviation at the University’s Daytona Beach, Fla. Campus. Ayers was Department Chair of Embry-Riddle’s Daytona Beach Flight Department until 2009, when he accepted the position of Chancellor at the Prescott Campus.
