James Comey Quote

Beautiful Healy Hall—part of, and all around where we sit now—was named after this great university's 29th President, Patrick Francis Healy. Healy was born into slavery, in Georgia, in 1834. His father was an Irish immigrant plantation owner and his mother, a slave. Under the laws of that time, Healy and his siblings were considered to be slaves. Healy is believed to be the first African-American to earn a Ph. D., the first to enter the Jesuit order, and the first to be president of Georgetown University or any predominantly white university.
