The Passing of Chairman Emeritus Wayman Smith III
Dear Howard University Community,
I am saddened to report the passing of Chairman Emeritus Wayman Smith III, a titan of civic and political life.
He was 80 years old.
Mr. Smith’s legacy on his hometown of St. Louis cannot be understated. In both his public and private life, he worked to bring security and prosperity to his local community. He was an elected official, serving as an alderman, like his father for whom he was named.

He was president of the police board, and he was a former vice president for corporate affairs with Anheuser-Busch Cos., a Fortune 500 business based in St. Louis.
His impact, however, stretched well beyond the borders of Missouri.
Mr. Smith earned his law degree from the Howard University School of Law in 1965 and retained a strong connection to our campus throughout his life. He served on Howard’s Board of Trustees of Howard from 1989 – 2012, as the chairman from 1991 – 1995,
