Facebook takedowns?

Has anyone had any experience with having a facebook page taken down?

We have an individual that is impersonating our University's President on
facebook making various statements that appear to be intended to embarrass
him and tarnish our University's reputation.  We've had our campus police
file a complaint through their law enforcement contact site and have also
had a number of people report the account as an impersonator.  To date the
only responses that we have had equate to "The account does not violate our
content or community standards"

Are there any other avenues that we can take?  Has anyone been successful
in having a page taken down?

Thanks,
-Dave
