Valree Fletcher Wynn : ウィキペディア英語版 | Valree Fletcher Wynn
Dr. Valree Fletcher Wynn (May 9, 1922) was the first African-American professor at Cameron University from 1966 until her retirement in 1985. Dr. Wynn became the first African-American to serve on the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges in 1986 and served as the president from 1988-1989. She is the recipient of many awards and was inducted into both the Oklahoma Women's Hall of Fame and the Oklahoma Higher Education Hall of Fame.〔 ==Early Life== Wynn was born in Rockwall, TX in 1922. She grew up in Sentinel, OK, a town without a school for black children. After attempting to send Wynn to a nearby town with a couple so that she might have an education, her parents brought her back home and petitioned for the building of a school. After a year, the school was burnt to the ground, so Valree's parents held class inside of their own home. Once she finished eighth grade, Wynn was sent to Lawton, OK to attend school at Douglass High School, 80 miles away from her parents' home. She would travel there and back on the weekends.
