NEYLAND TATE-SUPPORTED HIGHER EDUCATION among Negroes in s Florida had its beginning during the decade of the 1880’s. The initial step in this new educational venture was taken by Governor William D. Bloxham who, during his first administra- tion, vigorously set forth a threefold economic and social program. In his inaugural address he declared that in order to promote the interest, welfare, and prosperity of the state, “we must in- vite a healthy immigration; develop our natural resources by se- curing proper transportation; and educate the rising generation.’’ 1 He promulgated this combination as “the three links in a grand chain of progress upon which we can confidently rely for our future growth and prosperity.’’ 2 During his four years in office, 1881-1885, Governor Blox- ham assidiously endeavored to implement his inaugural pledges.

Edwards Ineria E. Hudnell Margaret S. Newton Debbye G. R. Raing Copyright © 2004 The Ipet-Isut Historical Preservation Foundation All Rights Reserved “Discrimination in education is symbolic of all the more drastic discrimination in which Negroes suffer. In the American life, the equal protection clause in the 14th Amendment furnishes the key to ending separate schools.” Charles Hamilton Houston Brown itself is made up of five cases. This collection of cases was the culmination of years of legal groundwork laid by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in its work to end segregation. None of the cases would have been possible without individuals who were courageous enough to take a stand against the segregated system. Briggs v. Elliot The Briggs case was named for Harry Briggs, one of twenty parents who brought suit against R.W. Elliot, the president of the school board for Clarendon County, South Carolina. Initially, parents had only asked the county to provide school buses for the Black students as they did for Whites.

  • When the End Comes to Higher Education Institutions, 1890-2019: a Data Source Virginia Sapiro Boston University
    When the End Comes to Higher Education Institutions, 1890-2019: A Data Source Virginia Sapiro Boston University This is a partial list of the concluding episodes of the independent existence of a selection of higher education institutions from 1890 to the beginning of 2019. It aims to include all institutions that were ever regionally accredited at the bachelors level or above or whose resources contributed in a genealogical sense to an institution that was accredited at that level. Or the era before accreditation it includes all institutions that were authorized to confer bachelors degrees or above or that contributed in a genealogical sense to an institution so authorized. It excludes straightforward transformations of an institution, as when an academy or normal school is re-chartered to become a college or university. It excludes for-profit institutions because their lives and deaths are very different given that they are treated as commodities with the primary purpose of revenue enhancement for owners. This listing shows different kinds of finality. These include: o The institution simply closes. In some cases the assets are acquired by another or successor institution of higher education, which may acknowledge the closed institution, for example, by naming a program after it, but the closed institution no longer has an independent existence. o One institution merges into another. Even if its name is preserved, for example, as the name of a college in a university, it no longer has separate accreditation or autonomy. o A new higher education institution is created by the merging of previously existing institutions. This list is arranged by year and then by alphabetical order of the latest state in which the institution or its successor existed.

Weaver To my mother, Dianne Weaver, without her none of this would be possible. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to acknowledge my dissertation Chair and Co-Chair Dr. David Hedge and Dr. Sharon Austin. I would also like to acknowledge my committee members Dr. Lynn Leverty, Dr. Beth Rosenson, and Dr. Paul Ortiz. This also would not be possible if it wasn’t for the support of the University of Florida’s Office of Graduate Minority Programs administered by Dean Henry Frierson, Dr. Tyisha Hathorn, Earl Wade, and Sarah McLemore. I must also acknowledge Florida A&M University, for this illustrious institution is the inspiration of this study, the provider of my doctoral fellowship, and the institution that helped mold me into the man that I am today. FAMU taught me how to do more with less, that excuses are tools of the incompetent, and the meaning of “Excellence with Caring.” I would also be remised if I did not acknowledge the greatest fraternity ever organized, The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated. Through my association with this fraternity, I was able cultivate life long friendships with brothers who inspired me to be great. These brothers included but are not limited to: Tallie Brinson, Dr. Terrell Coring, Robert Little, Malachi Green, Reynaldo Russell, Riccardo Jean, Gregory Boler, Quinton Stroud, Quinton Strother, Derrick Heck, Zeddrick Barber, Omari Crawford, Brian Freeman, Jared Fields, Bradford Moye, Royle King, and Iman Sandifer.
