McWilliams leaves FAMU Board of Trustees

Yesterday, a Rattler Nation Twitter post broke that news that Spurgeon McWilliams had stepped down from the FAMU Board of Trustees (BOT). McWilliams informed Florida Board of Governors (BOG) Chancellor Marshall Criser, III of his decision to leave in a brief letter.

Up until Wednesday, McWilliams was the longest-serving active member of the FAMU BOT. The BOG originally appointed him in 2006. He then received a reappointment in 2011 for a term that was to expire on January 6, 2016.
