Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) is a public, historically black university in Tallahassee, Florida. Founded in 1887, it is located on the highest geographic hill in Tallahassee, it is the 5th largest historically black university in the United States by enrollment and the only public historically black university in Florida.[4] It is a member institution of the State University System of Florida, as well as one of the state's land grant universities, and is accredited to award baccalaureate, master's and doctoral degrees by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

The 2020 edition of the U.S. News & World Report college rankings placed the university in Tier 1 among "national universities" (254th), 7th among all HBCUs and 2nd among all public HBCUs.[5] The university is classified as an R2 Doctoral Research University under the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, which denotes higher research activity.[6] For 2017, the National Science Foundation ranked Florida A&M University 216th nationally and 2nd among HBCU for total research and development expenditures.[7]

FAMU sports teams are known as the "Rattlers", and compete in Division I of the NCAA, they are a member of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC).

History[edit]

Abolitionist Jonathan C. Gibbs first introduced legislation to create the State Normal College for Colored Students in 1885, one year after being elected to the Florida Legislature. The date also reflects the new Florida Constitution of 1885, which prohibited racial integration in schools; the college was located in Tallahassee because Leon County and adjacent counties led the state in African-American population, reflecting Tallahassee's former status as the center of Florida's slave trade. (See History of Tallahassee, Florida#Black history.) The site of the university is the 375-acre slave plantation[8]:94 of Florida governor William Pope Duval, whose mansion, today the site of the Carnegie Library, burned in 1905.

Carnegie Library c. 1930.

On October 3, 1887, the State Normal College for Colored Students began classes, and became a land-grant college four years later when it received $7,500 under the Second Morrill Act, and its name was changed to State Normal and Industrial College for Colored Students. However, it was not an official institution of higher learning until the 1905 Buckman Act, which transferred control from the Department of Education to the Board of Control, creating what was the foundation for the modern Florida A&M University; this same act is responsible for the creation of the University of Florida and Florida State University from their previous institutions. In 1909, the name of the college was once again changed, to Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College for Negroes, and in 1953 the name was finally changed to Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University. Florida A&M is the only publicly funded historically black college or university in the state of Florida.[9]

Lee Hall c. 1930.

In 1951, the university started a pharmacy and nursing program. In order to give these students hands-on experience, the university built a hospital; until 1971 Florida A&M Hospital was the only one within 150 miles (240 km) of Tallahassee to serve African Americans.[10][11] It closed in 1971, after then-Tallahassee Memorial Hospital started serving African Americans.

In 1963, FAMU students demonstrated against segregation in the city.[12]

In 1992, 1995, and 1997, FAMU successfully recruited more National Achievement Scholars than Harvard.[13][14][15]

In the fall of 1997, FAMU was selected as the TIME Magazine-Princeton Review "College of the Year" and was cited in 1999 by Black Issues in Higher Education for awarding more baccalaureate degrees to African-Americans than any institutions in the nation.[16][17]

In 2011 Robert Champion, a band member, was beaten to death in a hazing incident. Two faculty members resigned in connection with a hazing investigation and 13 people were charged with felony or misdemeanor hazing crimes;[18] one student, a band member, was convicted of manslaughter and hazing charges and sentenced to six years in prison;[19] the scandal resulted in the resignation of FAMU's president and played a role in the university's regional accreditor, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, placing FAMU on probation for one year.[20][21][22]

In 2017, FAMU became the first university to launch an African-American news network through its School of Journalism and Graphic Communications; the network is named "The Black Television News Channel" and is accompanied by a multimillion-dollar, media-training center for aspiring journalists. This network is expected to bring $30 million annually in economic stimulus to the Tallahassee region.[23]

In 2019, FAMU and other HBCUs developed a partnership with Adtalem Global Education and its for-profit Ross University School of Medicine in Barbados.[24]

University rankings
National
U.S. News & World Report[37] 254 [36]

FAMU's School of Architecture and Engineering Technology is tied with seven other architecture-related schools in the No. 1 ranking by bachelor's degree production for African Americans by Diverse Issues in Higher Education.[38]

The Princeton Review recently named FAMU among its "2016 Best Colleges: Region-by-Region" list, ranking FAMU as one of the 140 "Best Southeastern" colleges and universities.[39]

FAMU was recognized in 2015 by the Building Green Initiative as the No. 2 "Greenest" public HBCU in the nation. In releasing its rankings, the initiative celebrated FAMU for its sustainability efforts via its agriculture and recycling programs, citing that the University has an "innovative approach to solving modern sustainability issues."[39]

College Choice ranked FAMU 5th among HBCUs its 2018 list.[40]

College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences[edit]

The School of Pharmacy was organized in 1951, it received its present name in 1985 in recognition of the expanded role and mission of the college in professional and graduate education. It is now one of the largest colleges of pharmacy in the country,[41] it offers a Doctor of Pharmacy Degree (PharmD) and also a PhD program in Pharmacy. The fall PharmD enrollment was 1,068, and FAMU has produced over 20% of the nation's African-American pharmacists;[42] the Pharmacy School in 2009–2010 graduate student enrollment was 122, with 42 PhDs, 21 DrPH, 45 MPH and 14 MS candidates.

College of Law[edit]

Main article: Florida A&M University College of Law

On December 21, 1949, a division of law was established at the then Florida A&M College, and the first class was admitted in 1951; the legislature established the school because no "separate but equal" state-supported law school existed for African Americans at that time.[44] The school's enrollment was limited to African-American male students[failed verification] and was located in Tallahassee, Florida.[44] The FAMU law school was closed through a vote by the Florida legislature in 1965, with the funds transferred to a new law school at Florida State University; vindictiveness for FAMU activism in support of desegregation was a factor;[45] the College of Law reopened in 2002 and now occupies its own 160,000-square-foot (15,000 m2) building at 201 Beggs Avenue in downtown Orlando with an onsite College of Law Library that is open to the general public. The four-story building was designed by Rhodes+Brito Architects of Orlando; the new building opened to students in 2005. Of the 1,807 who applied to the school in 2009, 630 were accepted and 234 enrolled.[44][46] Seventy-seven percent of the entering class were Florida residents, and 42% were non-minority students; the Florida Bar Exam cumulative pass rate for July 2018 was 50.4 percent.[47]

Research[edit]

FAMU's annual research funding is 44.5 million.[48] Research is funded by grants from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health.[49] FAMU's two largest research areas are agriculture and health sciences; the Pharmacy College's research funding is $20.2 million ($20.2 million in federal, $0.3 million in state support, and from $0.3 million in private industry support) with $29,281,352 committed.[50]

Campus[edit]

FAMU's main campus is in Tallahassee, Florida, just south of the State Capitol and the campus of Florida State University, it also has a law school campus in Orlando, Florida, and the Research and Development Center in Quincy, Florida. The College of Pharmacy has extension campuses in Miami, Jacksonville, Tampa and Crestview, Florida.[41]

Residential facilities[edit]

FAMU requires all first-year students to live on campus, if their families are over 35 miles (56 km) from the FAMU campus. Exceptions to this rule include married students, students with dependents, and students who are of age 21 by the start of classes.[51]

FAMU offers a limited number of rooms for students with dependent families.[51] Family households may occupy rooms in the Palmetto North Apartments.[52] Residents are zoned to Leon County Schools.[53] Residents are zoned to Bond Elementary School,[54] Nims Middle School,[55] and Leon High School.[56]

The Florida A&M Tallahassee Campus consists of 132 buildings spread across 420 acres (1.7 km2). Part of the campus is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical College Historic District. It received that designation on May 9, 1996; the district is centered along the section of Martin Luther King Boulevard that goes through the campus. According to the National Register, it covers 370 acres (1.5 km2), and contains 14 historic buildings and 1 object. One campus building, the old Carnegie Library, is listed separately on the National Register.[57] On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed Lee Hall at Florida Agricultural & Mechanical University (FAMU) on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.[58]

Research centers[edit]

The FAMU Research and Development Center in Quincy, Florida, serves students in animal science, pre-veterinary medicine and veterinary technology. In May 2009, a new New Animal Healthcare Complex opened to support FAMU's pre-veterinary program; the complex was funded by a $1.2 million grant from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Cooperative Extension Research.[59]

Other research centers include the following:[30]

  • The Sustainability Institute
  • The Center for Viticulture and Small Fruit Research
  • The Center for Plasma Science and Technology

Libraries[edit]

The Samuel H. Coleman Memorial Library is the University's main library, named for the man who served as the University's general alumni president for 14 years. After the University's main building containing administrative offices, cafeteria, and library were destroyed by fire, Andrew Carnegie donated a $10,000 gift for the construction of a new library facility; the construction of Coleman Library began during the post-World War II era. The new library was officially dedicated during FAMU's 1949 annual Founders Day celebration in honor of civil leader Samuel H. Coleman;[60] the library was built in 1948, renovated in 1972, expanded in 1990 and again in 2004. The 88,964 square feet (8,265.0 m2) facility includes study rooms, a student study lounge and cafe, graduate and faculty study carrels, teleconference rooms, and a state-of-the-art information literacy classroom.[61]

Along with the additional 20,000 square feet (1,900 m2) available in the branch libraries, the Florida A&M University Libraries provide a seating capacity of 920; the Libraries hold nearly 2 million volumes, over 155,000 e-books and e-journals, and 256,126 microforms, which are readily accessible to users and support both onsite and online programs.[61]

Carnegie Library[edit]

In 1907, when the city of Tallahassee turned down philanthropist Andrew Carnegie's offer of a library building, because by his rules it would have had to serve black patrons, Carnegie funded instead the Carnegie Library at FAMU, it no longer serves as a library, but instead houses the Southeastern Regional Black Archives Research Center and Museum.
