SAVE FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY by advocating for transparent leadership
The Issue
As friends and alumni of Florida A&M University (FAMU), we deserve better.
We have learned that several employees, staff members, and leaders were involved or had knowledge of a $237 million donation made by Mr. Gregory Gerami.
The revelations surrounding this "questionable" donation made to our beloved institution should have been reviewed by the FAMU Board of Trustees, the FAMU Foundation and evaluated by a reputable 3rd party for proper valuation before any public announcement.
The university board is in place for a reason and the university staff should value their oversight, scrutiny and guidance.
Our leaders are not exempt from upholding the values that FAMU has instilled in its students and alumni. They should always transparently follow the by-laws and protocols established by the board.
Considering the massive damage caused to Famu's reputation by their actions. We believe it is necessary for all administrators and staff involved - directly or indirectly to step down immediately.
This includes, but not limited to, any individual who had prior knowledge of this substantial contribution but chose not to include the head of the FAMU Foundation, all members of the Board of Trustees in the due diligence process or inclusion in any non-disclosure agreements that impact the university and the Famu community.
Consequently, these individuals have lost the trust and credibility necessary to lead this University.
By signing this petition, you are standing with the Famuly in demanding accountability from those entrusted with upholding the reputation and integrity of FAMU.
If you believe that "Famu deserves better", we urge you to lend your voice to this cause so that together we can ensure transparency and honesty remain at the core of our beloved university's operations.
