Summary
Humphries, whose 16 years of leadership at the school are often referred to as its “golden years,” has died, a statement from the university said.During his tenure, Humphries, who died Thursday at age 85, oversaw the revival of FAMU's law school and doubled the university's enrollment through scholarship programs that attracted highly talented students. He also drew increasing numbers of National Achievement Scholars to the school, ranking first in the country three times and outpacing Ivy League schools.Reginald Mitchell, now Director of Academic Success and Bar Preparation Program at the FAMU College of Law, said Humphries was a generous and attentive mentor intent on creating opportunities for his students.After completing his undergraduate degree in 1988, Mitchell told Humphries he thought FAMU could benefit from establishing a pre-law program, similar to other professional development tracks.
