FAMU AD John Eason confident $300,000 budget shortfall can be erased, with help - Byron Dobson, Tallahassee Democrat

Florida A&M University’s Athletics Department faces a more than $300,000 shortfall that it must cover by the end of this fiscal year, which ends June 30. Athletics Director John Eason said he’s confident the university can cover the shortfall by collecting on outstanding income owed to the department and with financial help from the FAMU Foundation, the Florida A&M University National Alumni Association and the Florida A&M University Boosters, as well as fundraising efforts, such as “The Big Push” planned for Father’s Day weekend. https://www.tallahassee.com/story/news/2019/06/07/florida-a-m-universitys-athletics-department-faces-more-than-300-000-shortfall-must-cover-end-fiscal/1376986001/
