Scope and contents

From the Collection:

This collection includes items that document various family members and the Zack and Camilla Hubert Foundation. Beautine Hubert DeCosta (donor of the collection) is the most documented family member within the collection. She attended Spelman College, but received her A.B. degree from Georgia State College, Savannah, Georgia in 1933. Beautine also attended Atlanta University where she received her Masters Degree from the School of Social Work in 1942. Most of her career in social work was in Baltimore, Maryland. Of particular note, among her papers are programs from the family life and marriage institutes she directed in the 1940’s and 1950’s. Also, there is a small amount of documentation on Charles Hubert who graduated from Morehouse College with a B.A. degree in 1909 and later received his D.D. degree in 1923. He joined the Morehouse College faculty in 1914 and served as acting president of Morehouse College in 1937, a position he held for three years until the election of President Benjamin E. Mays in 1940.



Additional materials donated by the family are represented in addenda to the finding aid. The additions mirror the arrangement and series titles in the original donation of materials.
