Wow, I've never heard that story before. Not that I don't believe it. I love FAMU with all my heart, I promise I do. But WHEN I become super rich, I am not giving the school blanket money. If they need computers, I will send them computers. If they need desks, I will send them desks. If they need scholarships, send the students to me, I will evaluate their applications and disburse the money directly to them. I can't have my funds misappropriated. I love my FAMU though, I will just be on a modified alumni donation plan, lol.

ETA: One sweet day N4L will have one nice thing to say about my beloved FAMU. GOSH! (in my Napoleon Dynamite voice)
