During his sixteen years at FAMU, Dr. Frederick Stephen Humphries provided quality leadership at the helm of an academic ship of higher education called Florida A&M University. He carefully steered it through the treacherous waters of political changes, budget cuts, and internal and external distractions to the calmer waters of academic and intellectual pursuits for both faculty and students. An academic leader who is sometimes accused of micromanagement, he encouraged and energized the various FAMU constituencies to work diligently toward achieving national acclaim for FAMU.

    Spirit, that made those heroes dare

    What would you say to war if it should come?
    That’s what for reasons I should like to know
    If you can comfort me by any answer.”
