Today while I was sitting in class trying to understand human physiology. I took a moment to check rattler nation, another blog site that provides information on the current situations going on at my Alma Mater. I was intrigued by the recent approval of our new president at the University. I have to admit that I am a fan of Castell. Only because I know logically that she was not there long enough to cause all of the problems that have befallen the university. She unfortunately walked into a bad situation and was immediately blamed for everything that was going wrong. In truth I feel that a lot of what she has done has kept the head of FAMU above water and made it possible for future repairs to be made. For those who would like to blame her for the probation the the College of Pharmacy I would recommend that they do their research. Accreditation committees make numerous trips to the programs they are review before they recommend a course of action, and one infraction does not cause probation. This has been a long time coming and previous staff and current staff have been ignoring the situation. The college has educated people who should know the course that curriculum should be taking and that is an easy fix if addressed.
I welcome President Ammon and I encourage people to just let the man do his job. There is no miracle in this situation that can happen over night... things take time to fix and things will probably get a lot worse before they get better.
