WILBERFORCE, Ohio (WDTN) - Wilberforce University faculty and students are once again expressing frustration with the administration.

The Faculty Association and the Student Government Association are planning a protest Tuesday, February 19 over what they call "failed efforts to strengthen the university and call attention to the severe financial and institutional problems" the university faces.

The groups say they will call for the president's resignation and the dissolution of the Board of Trustees.

Both parties say their concerns were not addressed at the board's recent spring retreat in Atlanta, Georgia.

Demonstrators say they will also boycott the the 257th year Founder's Day Convocation.

You might remember the students held a protest in October 2012.  They were upset over living conditions.

The protest is scheduled to begin Tuesday at 10:45 am at the Wilberforce Multiplex on North Bickett Road.
