Inside Higher Ed: Turmoil in Tallahassee
It has been a turbulent start to summer at Florida A&M University, where several personnel moves made by the interim president and the response from trustees have drawn criticism from some close to the university, including the president of the alumni association.
Eight professors received termination notices more than a month ago only to learn recently that they would remain on the payroll until further notice. A university trustee has asked Florida Gov. Jeb Bush to conduct an independent investigation into why an inspector general who monitors Florida A&M was placed on paid leave. And some continue to accuse trustees of dragging their feet on naming a permanent president.
