FAMU Appoints New President Amidst Community Backlash

Read, Watch or Listen

Marva Johnson, a Charter Communications executive, has been selected as Florida A&M University's 13th president despite facing significant community opposition. Her lack of academic experience and perceived right-wing political ties fueled criticism. Johnson, the second woman to hold the post, aims to give FAMU 'a seat at the table.' Her selection follows a contentious search process and the resignation of the previous president. Her salary will range from $450,000 to $750,000, pending confirmation by the Florida Board of Governors.
