Timeline
On January 7, 2021, Education Secretary Betsy DeVos submitted her resignation to the President of the United States because of the 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. As deputy secretary, Zais succeeded DeVos as acting secretary.
After Betsy DeVos resigned as Secretary of Education on January 7, 2021, after the storming of the United States Capitol, Zais assumed the office of secretary on January 8. He remained in the position until January 20, 2021, when President Joe Biden nominated Phil Rosenfelt, the former Acting General Counsel of the United States Department of Education, to serve in an acting capacity as Secretary of Education until Miguel Cardona, the President's nominee, was confirmed by the Senate.
On October 5, 2017, President Donald Trump announced his intention to nominate Zais to serve as the United States Deputy Secretary of Education. He was confirmed by the United States Senate by a vote of 50–48 on May 16, 2018.
Zais opposed implementation of the Common Core State Standards Initiative in South Carolina and withdrew from the state's participation in the federal Race to the Top grant competition. Zais supported the state's Governor to have the power to appoint the State Superintendent of Education, a position shared by a former Democratic Superintendent as well as his successor in the position. By the end of Zais's tenure, South Carolina's on-time high school graduation rates hit an all-time high of over 80% of students finishing within four-years. Zais decided not to run for re-election and endorsed Sally Atwater, widow of Lee Atwater, as his replacement. In the 2014 election, Republican educator and former legislator, Molly Mitchell Spearman, won by a wide margin and currently serves as South Carolina's next State Superintendent of Education.
Zais has a daughter, Ashley, who was Miss South Carolina USA in 2007. His father, Melvin Zais, was a four-star general in the United States Army.
Zais became the president of Newberry College in August 2000. During his time at Newberry, both enrollment and endowment nearly doubled. The college added forensic chemistry and nursing to the academic curriculum. During the last three years of his tenure, Newberry College was named by U.S. News & World Report as one of America's best colleges. He retired in June 2010, just prior to running for state Superintendent of Education.
Mitchell McGeever "Mick" Zais (born December 10, 1946) is an American education official and former general who served as the acting United States secretary of education. He previously served as the 17th South Carolina Superintendent of Education from 2011 to 2015. Before winning the election as superintendent, he served as President of Newberry College for ten years. Prior to that he reached the rank of Brigadier General in the United States Army.
