Florida A&M University is looking for Rattlers to befriend! Posted at 2:11 PM Dec 8, 2008 view more
About me: Founded on October 3, 1887, as the State Normal College for Colored Students, what is now Florida A&M was started with 15 students and two instructors. Its destiny was to become one of the nation's premier institutions of higher learning.
Today, Florida A&M University is one of nine institutions in the State University System. It was the Time/Princeton "College of Year" in 1997 and was recently chosen as Black Enterprise's No.1 university for minority students.
"Excellence with Caring" remains this university's goal.

When the dark clouds gather on the horizon, When thunder and lightning pierce the skies, When fate is but a glare in the eye of a fallen Rattler, and hope....a lost friend, When the sinew of the chest grows weary, And the muscles in the legs grow tired from those hard charging linebackers, You must always remember....the Rattlers will STRIKE!!! STRIKE!!! AND STRIKE AGAIN!!!
As you may know, the Florida Legislature is considering significant budget cuts to public higher education in the new fiscal year that starts on July 1, 2009. In anticipation of that, Florida A&M University (FAMU) is in the process of identifying wide-ranging budget reduction recommendations that will be considered over the next month.
As of today, the House and Senate budgets are far apart in their overall support for Florida A&M University (FAMU) and public higher education in general. In addition to budget cuts, the House proposes to mandate a pay cut to state employees’ salaries, including those at FAMU. The Senate has excluded the state university system from any pay cuts. Since most of our operating budget is comprised of payroll expenses, we believe this is a double hit for FAMU.
The current House budget includes a 22% cut in general revenue to state universities ($22.7M for FAMU), while the Senate budget proposes a 6.7% general revenue reduction ($6.9M for FAMU). While we would rather not have any additional cuts in light of the three budget reductions imposed between July 2007 and January 2009, given the current economic environment we favor the Senate budget.

Visions lead me to believe that the essential reason for us doubting our dreams is the assumption that we create in our mind that what we dream of or desire in this life does not exist...
or we think to ourselves that its just something that is virtually impossible to reach...
this is an illusion we tend to create in our minds and also the illusion we tend to believe...
so often we feel down...Hopeless
so i say this...
instead of sitting there in doubt...confused
drowning in a pool of negative thoughts...
i feel we need to go out there do some research and dig for the truth...
find out for ourselves if what we dream of or desire in life is really impossible or not...
cause i tell u that by the time we figure out that what we want isn't impossible and at arms reach...
most likely we'll be living in that dream we once believed could never be reality...
