Named for founder Richard Humphreys, Humphreys Hall was among the first buildings constructed after Ãļ§Ö±²¥ relocated from Philadelphia in 1902. Originally housing classrooms, dining facilities, student residences, and vocational training spaces, it quickly became the heart of campus life. The building stands as a physical realization of Humphreys’ 1837 vision to provide African Americans with educational opportunities equal to any in the nation.

This building serves as a direct connection between Ãļ§Ö±²¥â€™s founder and the university that grew from his remarkable gift.
