Founder's Day Convocation Postponed
Alabama A&M University has announced that the 145th Founder’s Day Celebration, originally scheduled for Friday, May 1, on the AAMU campus, has been postponed until a later date.
The event was scheduled to feature The Honorable W. Troy Massey during an 11 a.m. convocation in the T. M. Elmore Building. Judge Massey is a 1966 graduate of Tuscaloosa’s famed Druid High School. He is the sixth of nine children born to Isaac and Viola Massey and was the fourth in his family to attend college.
Massey enrolled at Alabama A&M College in fall 1966 with the assistance of a Basic Economic Opportunity Grant (BEOG), a precursor to the Pell Grant, together with various government and private loans. For extra money, Massey waited tables at the Carriage Inn Hotel; performed custodial work at IBM; and even worked in the college cafeteria.
