Student ambassadors represented the College of Law during Homecoming events, alumni engagement activities, and university traditions celebrating FAMU's legacy of excellence.

Orlando, Fla. - The Florida A&M University (FAMU) College of Law continues to celebrate cherished main campus traditions through the leadership and engagement of its Student Bar Association (SBA). Among those traditions is the annual selection of Mister and Miss FAMU College of Law, a distinction that honors the rich legacy of HBCU royalty while recognizing students who exemplify scholarship, leadership, and service.

Each spring, the College of Law student body elects a Mister and Miss FAMU College of Law to serve as ambassadors for the institution during the following academic year. For 2026-2027, third-year law students Breche DaValt of St. Louis, Missouri, and Jordan Williams of Tallahassee, Florida, were selected by their peers to wear the crown and sash, joining the SBA Executive Board and representing the College at events throughout their year-long reign.

While the College of Law does not host a formal coronation ceremony, the outgoing titleholders introduced their successors through a special video presentation shared with the law school community. The previous titleholders were Enya Brackins (‘26) and Ansonio Mitchell, 3L.

“One of the greatest honors of being named Miss FAMU College of Law was the opportunity to uphold a longstanding HBCU tradition at my alma mater while pursuing a professional degree,” said DaValt, who also earned her undergraduate degree from FAMU. “It was especially meaningful to join a distinguished legacy as the third consecutive Miss FAMU Law who is also a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated.”

In addition to serving as visible representatives of the College, Mister and Miss FAMU College of Law help keep students informed and engaged with campus life. As part of an initiative established by former SBA President Amber Newsome(‘26), the pair works closely with the College’s Law Communication Liaison team to record and promote major events, programs, and announcements. These brief video segments are featured on the College’s digital signage network and provide students with timely updates on activities taking place throughout the campus.

This year also marked an important milestone for the program. For the first time since the positions have been consistently filled, the Mister and Miss FAMU College of Law was invited to participate in the University’s Homecoming Parade in Tallahassee. The duo is also scheduled to represent the College during the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Parade in downtown Orlando in January 2027.

Beyond traditional Homecoming activities, Mister and Miss FAMU College of Law were joined by fellow students in celebrating alum engagement and community connection during Homecoming Week. Second-year students Deralyn Swilley and Vincent Jones Jr. joined representatives from across the University at the FAMU Forever Alumni and Corporate Homecoming Luncheon on Friday, October 23, 2026.

The luncheon featured university leadership updates, program highlights, networking opportunities, and recognition of the philanthropic support that continues to strengthen Florida A&M University. The event also provided students with a unique opportunity to connect with accomplished alums, university leaders, and supporters from a wide range of professional fields.

“The Alumni Luncheon on Friday provided a meaningful opportunity to connect with and engage in thoughtful discussions with the representatives from colleges and schools across the University, including Mister FAMU Evan Lesure,” said Williams, who is also a two-time Rattler. “The experience offered a powerful reminder of how far we have come as a university, and it filled me with pride to see FAMU alumni excelling in prominent fields while returning to invest in the University’s future and inspire both current and prospective students.”

Through their service, visibility, and engagement, DaValt and Williams are helping strengthen the connection between the College of Law and the broader FAMU community while carrying forward traditions that celebrate the University’s culture, excellence, and enduring legacy.
