I often say that situations like this can either make you bitter or better, and I believe that we are better going forward."Board of Trustees Chair Kristin Harper says a new Vice President of University Advancement and Executive Director of the FAMU Foundation will be hired by February the position that Dr. Shawnta Friday-Stroud resigned from over the summer.Harper also says she will operate the board by being resilient."I never lose. I either win or learn and that's the philosophy I've taken as we close this chapter in our history and move forward."Something else that came from Wednesday's Board of Governors meeting Dr. Beard has been confirmed as interim president of FAMU.His term will last for 12 months or until FAMU finds its next permanent president.At FAMU, Alberto Camargo, ABC27.
