Rufus Early Clement
Rufus Early Clement (June 26, 1900 – November 7, 1967) was an American academic administrator and university president. He served as the sixth and longest-serving president of the historically black Atlanta University (now Clark Atlanta University) in Atlanta, Georgia. Career A native of Salisbury, North Carolina, Clement started out as a professor and then dean of Livingstone College in Salisbury. Clement then served as the first dean of Louisville Municipal College, now known as Simmons College of Kentucky. In 1937, he was named president of Atlanta University, position which he held until his death some thirty years later. W. E. B.

For Clement-Du Bois relationship, pp. 120-121,Wilkerson cites L ...
