Message Replied To ========== Arguably yes..... Henry Flagler and the railroad comes to mind too, but I'd go with Disney. ==============================On January 6, 1853, Florida Governor Thomas Brown signs the bill that provided public support to higher education. East Florida Seminary in Ocala is one of the first schools to use this funding, but it soon closes due the Civil War. In 1866, EFS reopens in Gainesville, beginning a 150-year journey to become one of the largest, most prestigious schools in the world. |
