From a historical standpoint, it's easy to be sensitive about FAMU. I'll just take one example, the law school. When it was closed down in the late sixties, the explanation given was that there wasn't enough demand for a state law school in the panhandle. Alas, two years later there is an overwhelming demand in the panhandle so instead of re-opening FAMU's law school, it's opened at the white school, FSU, two years later. (PC folks, please don't flame me about calling the FSU the white school, in the sixties IT WAS the white school in Tallahassee)

That was only about 40 years ago, so those folks who participated in this treachery are still around Tallahassee. So if one has lived there, we know those SOB's say whatever they want to say so get the desired results. KMPG routinely sends the most unqualified individuals to work on projects that are primarily represented at FAMU. And if the rocket scientests at KMPG did an audit when the IP arrived and now two years later the problem is worse, WHAT DOES IT SAY ABOUT THERE ABILITY TO ANALYZE THE ISSUES AT FAMU? Trust they did not have any Rattlers working on the either audit.

And as one of the previous posters alluded, when Humphries was running stuff, the BOR didn't say squat to that man cuz he would beat them down. He must have been blackmailing (or should I say whitemailing) them cuz they was scared of that brother!!!

Jody, a reason why no Rattlers were on the audit team could be because KPMG considers it a conflict of interest. Even though I think the risk is small for impropriety, it's probably standard procedure.

When your allegiance prevents you from hearing or reading criticisms (that aren't even about your school), there's an issue.

My "sucky HBCU" comment to you was just teasing because you couldn't let go of whatever point you thought you were making. There are sucky HBCUs but I don't know enough about FAMU or its reputation to call it one.
