CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Former Florida A&M University president Frederick S. 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. A champion of historically Black colleges and universities and education for students of color, especially in the sciences, he led FAMU to be the leading producer of Black baccalaureate degree holders.
