FAMU recently released a video advertisement for its online master of business administration program that features an alumnus who knows a thing or two about corporate America.
John W. Thompson, the FAMU alumnus who succeeded Bill Gates as the chairman of the Microsoft Board of Directors, takes center stage in the 30-second promo to brief viewers about the rich quality of FAMU’s School of Business and Industry. He earned his bachelor’s degree in business from FAMU in 1971.
