Rollins Archive

I never knew that there was a Rollins archive in the basement of the library. The things they pulled out for us to look at were great. I never knew that the first person to graduate from Rollins was a woman, or that there used to be so many rules (no messy rooms and curfew) or that back then it only cost in the upper hundreds to attend Rollins. Looking at pictures of what Rollins used to look like through the years was very strange (Pine Hurst looks the same), and one picture showed railroad tracks going through campus by the lake. Our project is to do research on the Gentile Company in Winter Park. I’ve never heard about it, so it will be interesting to see what their business was.
