Morris Brown College has reinstated Dr. Kevin E. James as president just days after his sudden removal, reversing a decision that briefly disrupted leadership at one of the nation’s most closely watched HBCUs. ⁠🔗 IN BIO |⁠ ⁠ The reinstatement follows an internal determination by the Board of Trustees that the earlier termination did not follow the procedural requirements outlined in James’ employment agreement, prompting a swift reversal at a moment when institutional stability carries heightened importance. ⁠ ⁠ The move comes after a turbulent week in which the college announced James’ termination, named interim leadership, and faced immediate scrutiny from alumni, supporters, and higher-education observers. That initial decision — which HBCU Buzz covered when James was fired — raised questions about governance, timing, and the long-term implications for a college still navigating the next phase of its post-accreditation recovery. #HBCU #HBCUBUZZ #MorrisBrown ⁠ ⁠
