In the wake of FAMU President Larry Robinson's announcement of his resignation, the university's Board of Trustees has scheduled a meeting to the presidential search and selection process and potentially name an interim. The meeting is slated for 10 a.m. on Tuesday and will be conducted virtually via Zoom.
President Robinson, the second longest serving president in the State University System of Florida, has led FAMU since 2017, announced his decision to step down on Friday. His tenure has been marked by significant achievements, including improvements in student academic programs, and campus facilities.
This process is crucial for the university, as it will determine the leadership that will guide FAMU through the challenges and opportunities ahead.
"Our priority now is to ensure a smooth transition and to find a leader who will continue to build on the successes of the university," said a statement from the board.
