FAMU President James H. Ammons delivered his annual State of the University address, last Friday, to a packed Gaither Gymnasium. The speech entitled, " The Legacy Continued: FAMU Building Paradigm for the Future", stressed the need for the university to distinguisth itself from its peers while continuing to use research to develop new knowledge to meet local and global needs.

Ammons said that he and the FAMU Board of Trustees have identified a list of mutual goals to achieve this academic year. They include: fundraising, strengthening the university’s performance and presence in the professional world, improving campus housing and customer service, and enhancing retention services.

“I am so proud of FAMU and all of our accomplishments over the past year,” said Markia Butler, a senior from Jacksonville, Fla. “President Ammons’ speech not only encouraged me to succeed in the classroom, but to succeed in the workforce once I graduate this fall.”

“I look forward to the President’s convocation,” said Kayana Lewis, an administrative information management major. “It gives me a lot of inspiration for the fall semester.”

Ammons concluded his message by sharing how important it is for everyone to work together in order for the university to more forward.

“Without your support our future is limited,” he said. “With your support we can make this a stellar year. Join me as we charter new territories of greatness for our students, our alumni and generations to come.”
