Florida A&M University’s search for a new president will be shifting into high gear next week. It’s possible at least one finalist for the position will be on campus for an official visit late next week.
The presidential search committee, made up mostly of members of the Board of Trustees, is meeting next Monday and Tuesday at FAMU’s law school in Orlando.
No deadline for applying to be FAMU’s next president has been established. According to FAMU officials, the search will remain open until a new president has been hired.
Trustee Dr. Spurgeon McWilliams, vice-chair of the search committee, said the late notice of next week’s meetings in Orlando will prevent him from attending. He has been part of several presidential searches at FAMU, and actually cast the decisive seventh vote in 2007 when trustees decided 7-6 to hire James H. Ammons, who resigned in July. Provost Larry Robinson has served as interim president.
