RIP Dr. Humphries not only did you impact Beta Nu, Famu, but also HBCUs as a whole ... your reach was undeniably one of the greatest that Famu has ever seen. Thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the advancement of Famu and our entire race. #BestPresidentEver #FamuForever

His impact reaches even beyond us Today as we still see an increase of black scholars at HBCUs ... his methods and ideas have been shared across several universities (hopefully more will learn to adapt) for the survival and matriculation of our colleges into the future
