Florida Board of Governors Chair's statement regarding resignation of FAMU president
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE—July 11, 2012
FLORIDA BOARD OF GOVERNORS CHAIR’S STATEMENT REGARDING RESIGNATION OF FAMU PRESIDENT
Dean Colson, Chair, Florida Board of Governors of the State University System, and a Miami attorney:
“I was just made aware of today’s announcement and have read President Ammons’ resignation letter. I realize that this must have been a very difficult decision for President Ammons and his family. As the President candidly and correctly noted in his letter, there are challenges remaining at FAMU that ‘must be met head on.’ The Florida Board of Governors is committed to continued assistance to the FAMU Board of Trustees in order to fully resolve these challenges and ensure FAMU’s future success.”
