Former FAMU Student Body President Tonnette Graham joined
the Florida Board of Governors (BOG) in a unanimous vote to give Cleve the boot
from the FAMU Board of Trustees (BOT) earlier this afternoon. Today was Graham’s
last meeting as a member of the BOG. She held a seat on the BOG as part of
her duties as chair of the Florida Student Association.
Cleve used his position of BOT chair to defend Mangum. But
the BOT will have to elect a new chair to lead the discussion about whether it will
renew Mangum’s contract. The BOT must start that discussion by June 30, 2016.
