He left the football staff to become Assistant Dean of Men in January of 1966 and in 1968, earned his Ph.D. in educational administration. In 1970, Proctor became the President of Flagler College in St. Augustine, a position he held for over 25 years. Florida State honored one of its finest graduates in 1986 when he was chosen to receive one of the University’s Distinguished Educator Awards.
