(CNN) -- Florida Gov. Rick Scott could place Florida A&M University's accreditation in jeopardy by requesting the suspension of the university's president, the head of the school's National Alumni Association said Sunday.
Tommy Mitchell told reporters the president of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, which oversees accreditation, sent a "warning" to Scott after the governor asked the university's board of trustees to suspend James Ammons.
The warning said that school governing boards should be free of influence from government bodies, Mitchell said. If the board suspends Ammons at Scott's direction, it could have unforeseen consequences for the university, he added.
