A group of recent FAMU graduates have teamed up to share their stories of how the sound academic foundation that they received at the university has helped to prepare them for meaningful careers and grad school.
"We simply want to empower those who want to be a positive voice for FAMU," said James Bland, a 2008 graduate, who's primarily responsible for the idea. "We don't want to see our university's image completely tarnished during this time of turmoil. We recognized that there are things with in the FAMU culture that needs to be addressed and corrected. However, we also know that there are great things going on at FAMU, and no one will know that side of the story unless we tell it."
The website www.wearefamunited.com seeks to help spread some of the positive attributes of a FAMU education through youtube, facebook, and other social media outlets.
