AAHP 136 Interviewee: Kelvin Henry Interviewer: Candice Ellis Date: September 4, 2010 E: I’m Candice Ellis here on September 4 with Kelvin Henry? H: Yes. E: Nice to meet you. H: Nice to meet you as well. E: How are you doing today? H: I’m doing great. It’s great to be back here at the University of Florida. E: When was the last time you were here? H: The last time on official university business was I believe three years ago. My fraternity, Kappa Alpha Psi had a alumni reunion. So I think it’s three years ago I participated in the university. E: Do you try to get back often, visit everyone here? H: I’d love to get back often. I don’t get back as often as I’d like to. Certainly would like to get back more often. E: Well that’s great that you can make these visits here and there. Just to back track, can we start with where you were born and when, if you don’t mind saying? H: No I don’t mind at all. Born in Miami, Florida. Born and raised there, obviously, went to high school there, then came to the University of Florida. E: When did you enroll at UF? H: The class of [19]80. The fall of [19]80. I remember coming up, seeing the university, hadn’t met anybody at the university other than my guidance counselor, who was a Florida graduate. I remember falling in love with Gainesville. AAHP 136; Henry; Page 2 E: So you knew in high school that you wanted to be a Gator? H: No I didn’t. I knew I wanted to go to college, but I didn’t know that the University of Florida would be that choice. E: Where else did you apply? H: I applied to Florida State, got accepted. University of Miami, got accepted. Bethune Cookman College, got accepted as well. E: But it was UF. H: It was UF absolutely. E: Wonderful decision. Do you have any siblings? H: Yes, I have four brothers including myself and one sister. My older brother lives in Atlanta. I got a brother who lives in Louisiana. Brother in New York, works for Merrill-Lynch and then brother here in Florida. My sister is also in Florida and my mom is in South Florida as well. E: Any other Gators? H: No other Gators, but wannabe Gators. E: If you’re not a Gator, then you’re a wannabe Gator. H: If you’re not a Gator, you’re Gator bait. E: What do your parents do? H: My dad is deceased and my mom is retired from manufacturing work. E: Did they push you to go to college? H: It was always that they wanted the best for us. We were the first generation to go to higher education. They did not but they wanted us to. They supported us AAHP 136; Henry; Page 3 spiritually, nurtured us emotionally. Even financially, at that time we were able to get a lot of scholarships and financial aid to attend the university. E: I’m not familiar when Bright Futures started, were you in on Bright Futures? H: No, I’m not familiar with Bright Futures. E: Maybe that was a little later, I guess. But you did get in on several scholarships and they helped you out with that? H: Yes, I did. I was related to John Boatwright. He was a member in the Office of Admissions at that time. I remember getting a contact from him when I applied and got an acceptance. Mr. Boatwright called me and said, “We’re going to give you some money, come to school here.” I was like, “Whoa.” That was a major league blessing. To God be the glory for that. E: You said you instantly fell in love with Gainesville. H: Soon as I got here. I remember catching a Greyhound bus. I didn’t have the privilege of mom and dad dropping me off, so I got the Greyhound bus. Came to the University of Florida and came on campus. Actually I came the summer before, I came to the Preview Program. I came up here and just literally fell in love with the university: the people, the place. Gainesville obviously was a big change in scenery from Miami. I just fell in love with the place. I knew at that time that I made the right decision. Having not been here before. As soon as I got here, was shortly thereafter that I realized I’m going to love it here. E: And you were not overwhelmed at all by the size of the campus? I know sometimes people are nervous about that. AAHP 136; Henry; Page 4 H: I was not overwhelmed by the size of the university. I did think this is a big place. This is a huge organization. I came here—I guess it’s part of destiny—I came here knowing that I would get involved with the university. I had a great time here at the University of Florida getting involved. I think when I first came here, not overwhelmed, but just almost like wow, this is big. It was almost like a city within a city. I was very active in high school, in several approved activities. I was in Student Government and different organizations. I had been used to being involved. E: The kind of recognition and I guess on campus. H: Exactly. I was used to being involved and so when I came here I was like, wow, this is big. E: It might be a little more difficult to make a name. H: That’s what I was thinking at that time, yes. E: Do you remember what dormitory you lived in? H: Oh yes I was in Hume Hall. That was before Hume was the honors dorm. E: Wow. That housing has a reputation. H: Hume is the honors dorm now. I probably would not have been in Hume at that time. I remember coming to campus, standing at Hume Hall. I don’t remember the guy’s name but he was an RA at the time. He made me feel really welcome on my first day. Subsequently we became friends. He was a graduate student, he had already graduated. He did kind of mentor me along the way as well. E: What was your roommate like? AAHP 136; Henry; Page 5 H: That was interesting, coming from Miami. I had what we called the international room. I’m African-American from Miami. I had a White roommate from a small town called Dunedin. Then we had a student from China in our room. We had three in the room. We had the best time, different backgrounds, different cultures. When you think of three guys in one room you think there might be some conflict. There was never any conflict, it was beautiful. E: There are so many opportunities for something to go wrong, putting three people in one room. H: Kenny was from Dunedin and Chin was from China, great people. E: Are you still in touch with them? H: No, but I did meet some folks who were in the same dorm but down the hall in the same dorm. Jeff Berger and I, we actually are friends today. He was in my wedding. We became friends, it’s a lifetime I guess. Lifetime friends. E: Was it co-educational at that point? I know they made that transition sometime in the early [19]70s. H: The University of Florida? Yes. I got here in the [19]80s. It was co-education at that time. Hume Hall was actually one floor guys and another floor was the girls. That was different as well, having the co-ed experience. E: Sneaking downstairs. H: I won’t say that on camera, but I will just say it was fun. E: You mentioned you were really involved on campus. Can you talk about that? H: I’ll be glad to, sure. I was an athletic trainer in high school. I came here hoping to get involved with the Athletic Association as a trainer. I interviewed with Chris AAHP 136; Henry; Page 6 Patrick, who was the head athletic trainer at that time. I think he still is. They looked over my application and I was accepted immediately as a student trainer for the University of Florida Gators football team. I subsequently went to the track team and baseball team as well. That was my initial involvement with the university as an athletic, student trainer. I often say to folks that being a student trainer is like a seventy-hour-a-week job.
