FAMU Interim President Timothy Beard said in a statement that the university is aware of the allegations connected to her work with a "former employer."

"While the matter is unrelated to her duties as an employee at FAMU, we are monitoring the situation and will respond in the future as appropriate," Beard said.

Is Florida A&M the one that accepted that fake $200m donation last year?

That won’t help their chances getting in the Sun Belt.

I mean, she was just arrested, booked on two felonies and four misdemeanors ... so that strikes me as a very tepid response from FAMU. I would have expected to her to be suspended, put on a leave of absence, by FAMU while felony charges are pending.

Especially since her former employer is the FSF, which the article says operates "under the Florida Department of Commerce". I mean, this is public money involved, I presume.

He’s an interim President, probably afraid to wipe his butt without permission. It’s really tough to see how she could keep her job after this, though they’ll jump through the right hoops to ensure she is fired for cause.

At what point does FAMU install an "It has now been ___ days since an embarrassing scandal" sign in its administrative office? Reset the clock, everyone.

The sad thing is, there was a time, and it was for a long time and not all that long ago, when FAMU was regarded as the best-run and most stable HBCU this side of Howard, and regarding athletics this side of anybody.
