Dr. Romeo B. Garrett was one of the first three people to receive a degree in Bradley University's newly established master's degree program. Dr. Garrett went on to become Bradley's first African-American professor.

An avid collector of black history memorabilia, Dr. Garrett amassed a collection so vast that the Peoria Public Library has exhibited a sampling of it annually for the past 20 years.

While at Bradley, Dr. Garrett encouraged administrators to hire more black teachers and staff, and brought prominent blacks to lecture or perform on campus.
