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.

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.

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.
