Description

This file contains general correspondence dating from 1954 to 1963 generated during the presidency of FAMU President George W. Gore. The materials are arranged alphabetically by subject and correspondent, H through L, and reflect the routine administrative, academic, and institutional communications of the Office of the President during this period.

The correspondence documents interactions between President Gore and faculty, staff, students, state and federal agencies, alumni, professional organizations, and community stakeholders. Topics represented within the H–L range may include matters related to higher education policy, housing, institutional planning, labor and personnel issues, legislative affairs, student life, and inter-institutional relations.

Collectively, these papers provide insight into Florida A&M University’s governance, leadership priorities, and external relationships during the mid-20th century, illustrating the operational and strategic challenges of an HBCU navigating expansion, segregation-era policies, and evolving state and national educational frameworks.
