Booker T. Washington Junior College
Booker T. Washington Junior College was established by the Escambia County school board in 1959. It was the first of twelve junior colleges established in Florida, at the initiative of the Legislature, to serve African-American Floridians. The context was the unanimous 1954 Brown vs. Board of Education decision mandating school desegregation, and the Legislature, heavily dominated by rural and racist north Florida, wished to show that "separate but equal" access to higher education was working. Previously, the only higher education available in Florida to African Americans was at Bethune-Cookman College and Florida A&M University, both historically black.
The College, named for the famous black intellectual Booker T. Washington, shared facilities and administrator with Booker T. Washington High School, in Pensacola, Florida. Its founding and only president and dean, and principal of the high school, was Garrett T. Wiggins, the only educator in northwest Florida with an earned doctorate,〔Kevin M. McCarthy, ''African American Sites in Florida'', PineapplePress, 2007, ISBN 1561643858, p. 67, https://books.google.com/books?id=A_bZhe4no8UC&pg=PA67&dq=Booker+t.+Washington+junior+college&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCMQ6AEwAGoVChMI7tCUq5PxxwIVSaweCh1dTAxO#v=onepage&q=Booker%20t.%20Washington%20junior%20college&f=false, retrieved August 11, 2015.〕 described as "the smartest man in Escambia County".〔Kenneth D. Yglesias, "The Magnificent Twelve: Florida's Black Junior Colleges", ''Diverse Issues In Higher Education", June 23, 2007, http://diverseeducstion.com/article/7742/, consulted August 11, 2015.〕 Its first class, with 23 students, graduated in 1961.〔http://www.pensapedia.com/wiki/Washington_Junior_College, consulted August 11, 2015.〕 At its peak the college enrolled 361 students. In 1965, in response to the pressures for integration, Washington Junior College was closed. It is often said that the college was merged with Pensacola Junior College (now Pensacola State College),〔"College History", http://www.pensacolastate.edu/college-history, consulted August 11, 2015.〕 but like Roosevelt Junior College and other Florida black junior colleges, it is more accurate to say it was closed. None of the faculty got similarly-paying jobs,〔Arden Moore, "Book Examines Florida's Forgotten Black Junior Colleges," ''Sun-Sentinel'', September 10, 1994, http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1994-09-10/news/9409090669_1_black-colleges-white-colleges-community-colleges, retrieved August 10, 2015.〕 and black student enrollment did not transfer en masse to PJC, where students found, at best, an indifferent atmosphere.〔McCarthy, p. 67.〕
