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.

  • Broward College Report 2020
    An Independent Assessment of the Impact of Broward College February 2020 Dear Fellow Taxpayer Florida’s college system has provided an opportunity for generations of Floridians to have a better life, at a cost that is much more reasonable than other forms of higher education. A great many of our law enforcement officers, emergency medical technicians, nurses, and firefighters received their degrees from Florida community colleges. Likewise, a great many of our university graduates started at a community college (myself included). Thousands of jobs in Florida are unfilled because businesses cannot find employees who have the right skills required to fill them. These are jobs in industries such as carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, and construction, jobs that do not require a baccalaureate degree. Two-year degrees and certificate programs can give people the requisite skills needed to fill these positions, thereby dramatically increasing their earning power. In fact, since past TaxWatch studies on this subject were undertaken, the wages of such ‘skilled-labor’ careers have increased significantly, which – as this analysis shows – have thus increased the value of the state’s investment in the Florida College System. Florida currently ranks 24th in the US in the number of people age 25–64 with an associate in arts degree or higher, or with a high-quality, workforce-relevant certificate. On January 30th, 2019, Governor DeSantis signed an Executive Order establishing the goal to make Florida number 1 in the U.S. for workforce education by 2030 and to ensure that Florida students are ready for high-demand, high-wage jobs. Building a workforce in health services, transportation, education, computing, trade, utilities, and jobs that require an industry certification or license will require a sizable investment of public and private funds.

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.
