Recent testimony of FSU Pres Barron before FL Legislature Comm

<p>I understand the Florida legislature approved an engineering college for FAMU in 1950, but the state didn’t fund it until 1982. It took FAMU a long time to get the engineering school operating and I doubt they are going to just hand it totally over to FSU without a fight, or unless they get something in exchange or are forced to. Too, FAMU is probably still sore about losing its law school back in 1965 when the state legislature closed FAMU’s law school and approved a new law school for FSU. FAMU supporters have a long memory.</p>
