Booker T. Washington, who established The Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute in 1881, served as its Principal until his death in 1915. He had a superior reputation, and often traveled to speak and raise funds to pay the $50 teaching fee per student and expand Tuskegee from a one-room school into a renowned university with more than 100 buildings and 1,500 students. His autobiography, Up From Slavery, was published in 1901.
