Member of the Howard Board of Trustees. His over $3 million of financial support to Howard’s School of Architecture made him the nation’s foremost Black philanthropist in support of increasing the number of Black licensed architects in the U.S. His generosity to the School included a $1million gift to create an annual endowed chair faculty position. This is still the only endowed academic position in the nation at an HBCU-based architecture program. His support also created the T. George Silcott gallery and lecture hall at Howard.
