Julian Whites seeks reinstatement


Julian White, former director of the FAMU Marching 100 director Julian White has retained Tallahassee Attorney Chuck Hobbs and is looking to be reinstated as director of bands at Florida A&M University.

In a seven-page letter to FAMU president James Ammons, Hobbs has requested Ammons "rescind his decision and allow Dr. White to his full rank and privileges.


In the letter, Hobbs says Ammons and his leadership team were provided copies of hazing incidents and suspensions that have occurred since 2006 and may be material witness to future legal actions.

Hobbs also said the university could have taken "swifter action" regarding hazing incidents that Dr. White brought to their attention.
