Students stand with Dr. Joseph Taylor
Description
Dr. Joseph Taylor taught the first black history class at UCF (then called FTU) in the early 1970's. The class was titled History 324-01 Black American History, and was split into two sections, dividing black history into pre-slavery and post-slavery eras. The class was added in the Spring of 1970. Dr. Taylor himself was not a permanent faculty member at FTU, but was an assistant professor of American history at Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona, Florida.
