In this issue of A&M Magazine we tell the story of FAMU’s rich tradition of empowerment.
Our cover story, “Planting Hope,” chronicles the work of the FAMU Office of International Agriculture Programs and a group of Rattler and partner volunteers who are helping to bring economic and social empowerment to a community in Haiti.
You will also learn more about FAMU’s “Man on a Mission,” Lt. Col. Gregory Clark, the newly elected president of the FAMU National Alumni Association, and the innovative campaign he has launched to support student retention.
While the FAMU Pharmacy Program is known as the No. 1 producer of African-American doctoral degrees in pharmacy, the story that often goes untold is the incredible work it's doing to help bridge the health-care divide. In this issue, we celebrate the program’s impact on the community.
These are just a few examples of the inspiring and unforgettable stories you will find on the pages that follow.
