Cheyney Today
Founded in 1837 as the Institute for Colored Youth, Cheyney University of Pennsylvania is the
oldest of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities in America. The founding of Cheyney
University was made possible by Richard Humphreys, a Quaker philanthropist who bequeathed
$10,000, one tenth of his estate, to design and establish a school to educate the descendents of
the African race.
Born on a plantation in the West Indies, Richard Humphreys came to Philadelphia in 1764.
Having witnessed the struggles of African Americans competing unsuccessfully for jobs due to
the influx of immigrants, he became interested in their plight. In 1829, race riots heightened and
it was that year Richard Humphreys wrote his will and charged thirteen fellow Quakers to design an institution: “...to instruct the descendents of the African Race in school learning, in the
various branches of the mechanic Arts, trades and Agriculture, in order to prepare and fit
and qualify them to act as teachers....”
The school began in Philadelphia as the Institute for Colored Youth and successfully provided
free classical education for qualified young people. In 1902, the Institute moved to George
Cheyney’s farm, 25 miles west of Philadelphia. In 1913, the name was changed to Cheyney
State Teachers College; in 1921, the State Normal School at Cheyney; and in 1959, Cheyney
State College. In 1983, Cheyney joined the State System of Higher Education as Cheyney
University of Pennsylvania.
Today, Cheyney University students represent a variety of races, cultures, and nationalities who
receive education instruction beyond the vision of Richard Humphreys. Cheyney graduates still
become teachers, but students also enter careers such as journalism, medicine, business, science,
law, communication, and government service. The university offers baccalaureate degrees in
more than 30 disciplines and the master’s degree in education.
Cheyney University is proud of its more than 10,000 graduates. Well known alumni include
the late journalist Ed Bradley of the CBS program “60 Minutes;” Robert W. Bogle, publisher
and CEO of the Philadelphia Tribune, the oldest newspaper continuously owned an operated
by an African American; Gladys Styles Johnston, Chancellor of the University of Nebraska at
Kearney; State Representative Michael Horsey who represents the 190th district in Philadelphia
County; State Representative Thaddeus Kirkland who represents the 159th district in Delaware
County; Robert L. Woodson, Founder and President of the National left for Neighborhood Enterprise (NCNE), Washington, D.C.; Samuel J. Patterson, CEO of Shepard Patterson Systems
and Information Consulting Firm; and Ambassador (retired) Joseph M. Segars.

2010-11 Cheyney University
Men’s Basketball Preview
Bray to Lead Cheyney
Sharif Bray is one of the most prolific scorers in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.
Last season, his first back in collegiate ball, Bray averaged 21.7 points per game. Joining Bray
in the back court will be Rob Townsend, Bruce Kennedy and Amarildo Matos. All three saw
substantial minutes a year ago and will be a key component for Coach Dominique Stephens and
his staff if the Wolves are to get back to the PSAC postseason. Last season, the Wolves finished
16-12 overall and 9-5 in the PSAC before falling to East Stroudsburg in the quarterfinals.
According to Stephens all three (Matos, Kennedy and Townsend) have really stepped up their
game. They all worked very hard over the summer and we should see the fruits of their efforts
this season. Matos averaged 4.3 points while shooting 40% from behind the arc. Kennedy
averaged over five points a game last season. Townsend shot over 50% from the field averaging
4.9 points per contest.
“The front court was a shortcoming last season,” stated Stephens. With the addition of David
Burton, Antonio Boyd, Anthony Juene and Javon Beatty, Cheyney looks to have filled some of
the pieces that were previously missing. Burton transferred from the University of the District
of Columbia, Boyd from Philadelphia CC and Juene from Holy Family.
“We decided to keep a lot of players on the roster this year. The players are going to have to
battle in practice just to see who dresses for a game,” stated Stephens.
Bruce Kennedy (10) and Antonio Boyd (1) run the fast break.

The program shall fall within Cheyney’s abilities to provide appropriate facilities, financial capabilities of Cheyney University to fund adequately.
The goal of the Department of Athletics is consistent with the core mission of the University: to provide excellent educational opportunities for a diverse student population. Our student-athletes will be viewed as students first, and only then as
athletes. The department will focus on providing graduates who are successful, well rounded and prepared to make positive contributions to society.
Academics achievements in the classroom, together with the development of character, individual and team skills, the will
to win, and a sense of fair play and sportsmanship in athletic competition determines distinction in intercollegiate athletics
programs. Such groups including students, faculty and staff, alumni, community and friends at all levels of interest.
The Department of Athletics will strive to be a leader in areas of ethics, non-discrimination, diversity and authentic fiscal
integrity throughout the Cheyney University campus, the State of Pennsylvania and the country. At the time, student-athletes must be given the greatest preparation, motivation and support.
