While studying for a B.S. in Business and Religion from Union University, he worked part-time as a reporter for Dun and Bradstreet. After graduating in 1941, he became pastor of the Olive Branch Baptist Church (Mississippi), while also briefly teaching high school science. Continuing with his church duties, he entered the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kentucky before returning to Jackson to serve as the college coordinator for the Forty-fourth College Training Detachment USAAF (Army Air Corps) from 1943-1945. He married Frances Hilliard of Jackson, Tennessee on May 15, 1945. The following year, he received his M.A. in Economics from George Peabody College and became Acting Head of the Commerce Department at Union University. The Millicans moved to Florida in 1948 where Millican studied for his Ph.D. in Business Finance and Economics. At the University of Florida, he worked as a teaching assistant, instructor and finally as Assistant Professor. Although he was appointed Assistant Dean of the College of Business Administration in 1956, he moved almost immediately to Texas where he became Dean and Professor of the School of Business Administration at Hardin-Simmons University. In 1959, he returned to Florida to become Dean of the College of Business Administration at the University of South Florida. "," When Dr. Millican was appointed President of the new university in 1965, the university had no name, no buildings, no faculty and no students; he had to create the university over which he would preside. After Millican's appointment, he hired staff, found premises, and began the slow process of creating his university. He recognized three basic principles which he firmly believed the new institution should adhere to: the value of each human being; the importance of the quality of one's performance; and, the promotion of college spirit. In doing so, he established the twin tenets of \"Accent on the Individual\", \"Accent on Excellence,\" which continue to guide the University, and the motto, \"Reach for the Stars\". In addition, he co-designed the \"Pegasus\" official seal of the university. As early as 1969, Dr. Millican began working to establish a research park associated with the University. Although he retired as President in 1978, others continued his efforts resulting in the opening of the Central Florida Research Park in 1982. After retiring from the presidency, Millican returned to teaching finance as a professor in the College of Business at the University of Central Florida, as it was now known, and earned the title President Emeritus. After retiring from the University in 1981, Dr. Millican became the President of Lake Highland Preparatory School, serving from 1982-1985, and continued as President Emeritus-Consultant until 1993. Dr. Millican returned to serve the University in 1993 as President Emeritus and Special Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer of the UCF Foundation."," In addition to his career in higher education, Charles Millican has worked as a consultant to business firms and Florida Counties on economic growth and financial management and as a church pastor/pulpit supply minister. He chaired the Orange County Community Referendum Committee, which passed the resort tax that built the Orange County Convention Center. As chairman of the Orange County Association for Responsible Development, he created a plan to finance construction of a waste water treatment plant for the southeast quadrant of Orange County. His professional and civic affiliations have included, State Representative of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Board Member of the Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce, Heart of Florida United Way, First Federal Savings and Loan Association, Orlando, United Telecommunications Corporation, Florida and Shands Teaching Hospital, and membership in the Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida and the Downtown Rotary Club, . He has received Distinguished Alumnus awards from both the University of Florida and Union University, and he received honorary LL.D. degrees from Rollins College and UCF.","Processing History  Collection processed by and finding aid prepared by Judith Beale in 2005. Minimal preservation work was necessary; metal paper clips were replaced by plastic clips; newspaper clippings were copied onto acid-free paper, and materials were placed in acid-free folders and cartons. Files arranged chronologically from the back were rearranged chronologically from the front. Publications were removed to be catalogued with other university publications. Sometime previously, most staples had been removed, which made it difficult to identify which papers belonged together. Social Security Numbers were removed. The finding aid was placed into Archon, with adjustments made for Archon and resulting in edition 2, by Mary Rubin in 2015. A quarter box of materials was found in 2019 that contained maps from this collection. They were pulled from the collection sometime prior to 2014. The maps were flattened and re-added into the collection in 2019, resulting in edition 3.","For more information on university archives, please see our website. Further information about this collection may be found in the University scrapbooks, which document Nixon's visit and Millican's inauguration, and the University of Central Florida Office of the President Collection. Additionally, Dr. Millican's work entitled \"Financing Church Expansion\", his portrait, and the bust sculpted of him are all preserved in the University Archives.","This collection is arranged in seven series by subject.\n\n","University Planning, 1953-1968","State University System, 1965-1978","Business Affairs, 1963-1978","Academic Affairs, 1963-1978","Richard M.

Millican was the first President of Florida Technological University, serving from 1 December 1965 until 31 January 1978. This collection of his administrative papers documents the organization of Florida's university system during those years with particular reference to the decision to found a new university in Central Florida and the physical and philosophical construction of the university that would become the University of Central Florida. Millican's papers include his correspondence, speeches and reports, State University System reports, as well as minutes of the Board of Regents and the Council of Presidents meetings. Of particular interest are documents that were written before his appointment, which concern the establishment of the University, initial planning conferences, site selection and legislative lobbying. After his appointment, topics of historical significance include construction, five-year plan, groundbreaking, dedication and presidential inauguration. Photographs are distributed throughout the record group and show faculty, students, staff, administrators, buildings and dignitaries who had any involvement with the University or its president. All aspects of university life are represented in these papers, academic affairs and faculty achievements, student affairs, and administrative decisions. Commencement ceremonies are well documented especially President Richard M. Nixon's speech at the 1973 commencement. Other topics in the collection include evaluation of the president, college housing program, faculty opinions and regional campuses.","UCF University Archives","Florida Technological University","University of Central Florida","Kennedy Space Center","Minute Maid","Little Princess Kindergarten","Board of Regents ","Council of Presidents ","Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce ","Orlando Chamber of Commerce","Seminole County Chamber of Commerce","Charles Norman Millican ","Richard M.

While studying for a B.S. in Business and Religion from Union University, he worked part-time as a reporter for Dun and Bradstreet. After graduating in 1941, he became pastor of the Olive Branch Baptist Church (Mississippi), while also briefly teaching high school science. Continuing with his church duties, he entered the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kentucky before returning to Jackson to serve as the college coordinator for the Forty-fourth College Training Detachment USAAF (Army Air Corps) from 1943-1945. He married Frances Hilliard of Jackson, Tennessee on May 15, 1945. The following year, he received his M.A. in Economics from George Peabody College and became Acting Head of the Commerce Department at Union University. The Millicans moved to Florida in 1948 where Millican studied for his Ph.D. in Business Finance and Economics. At the University of Florida, he worked as a teaching assistant, instructor and finally as Assistant Professor. Although he was appointed Assistant Dean of the College of Business Administration in 1956, he moved almost immediately to Texas where he became Dean and Professor of the School of Business Administration at Hardin-Simmons University. In 1959, he returned to Florida to become Dean of the College of Business Administration at the University of South Florida. "," When Dr. Millican was appointed President of the new university in 1965, the university had no name, no buildings, no faculty and no students; he had to create the university over which he would preside. After Millican's appointment, he hired staff, found premises, and began the slow process of creating his university. He recognized three basic principles which he firmly believed the new institution should adhere to: the value of each human being; the importance of the quality of one's performance; and, the promotion of college spirit. In doing so, he established the twin tenets of \"Accent on the Individual\", \"Accent on Excellence,\" which continue to guide the University, and the motto, \"Reach for the Stars\". In addition, he co-designed the \"Pegasus\" official seal of the university. As early as 1969, Dr. Millican began working to establish a research park associated with the University. Although he retired as President in 1978, others continued his efforts resulting in the opening of the Central Florida Research Park in 1982. After retiring from the presidency, Millican returned to teaching finance as a professor in the College of Business at the University of Central Florida, as it was now known, and earned the title President Emeritus. After retiring from the University in 1981, Dr. Millican became the President of Lake Highland Preparatory School, serving from 1982-1985, and continued as President Emeritus-Consultant until 1993. Dr. Millican returned to serve the University in 1993 as President Emeritus and Special Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer of the UCF Foundation."," In addition to his career in higher education, Charles Millican has worked as a consultant to business firms and Florida Counties on economic growth and financial management and as a church pastor/pulpit supply minister. He chaired the Orange County Community Referendum Committee, which passed the resort tax that built the Orange County Convention Center. As chairman of the Orange County Association for Responsible Development, he created a plan to finance construction of a waste water treatment plant for the southeast quadrant of Orange County. His professional and civic affiliations have included, State Representative of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Board Member of the Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce, Heart of Florida United Way, First Federal Savings and Loan Association, Orlando, United Telecommunications Corporation, Florida and Shands Teaching Hospital, and membership in the Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida and the Downtown Rotary Club, . He has received Distinguished Alumnus awards from both the University of Florida and Union University, and he received honorary LL.D. degrees from Rollins College and UCF.","Processing History  Collection processed by and finding aid prepared by Judith Beale in 2005. Minimal preservation work was necessary; metal paper clips were replaced by plastic clips; newspaper clippings were copied onto acid-free paper, and materials were placed in acid-free folders and cartons. Files arranged chronologically from the back were rearranged chronologically from the front. Publications were removed to be catalogued with other university publications. Sometime previously, most staples had been removed, which made it difficult to identify which papers belonged together. Social Security Numbers were removed. The finding aid was placed into Archon, with adjustments made for Archon and resulting in edition 2, by Mary Rubin in 2015.

Millican was the first President of Florida Technological University, serving from 1 December 1965 until 31 January 1978. This collection of his administrative papers documents the organization of Florida's university system during those years with particular reference to the decision to found a new university in Central Florida and the physical and philosophical construction of the university that would become the University of Central Florida. Millican's papers include his correspondence, speeches and reports, State University System reports, as well as minutes of the Board of Regents and the Council of Presidents meetings. Of particular interest are documents that were written before his appointment, which concern the establishment of the University, initial planning conferences, site selection and legislative lobbying. After his appointment, topics of historical significance include construction, five-year plan, groundbreaking, dedication and presidential inauguration. Photographs are distributed throughout the record group and show faculty, students, staff, administrators, buildings and dignitaries who had any involvement with the University or its president. All aspects of university life are represented in these papers, academic affairs and faculty achievements, student affairs, and administrative decisions. Commencement ceremonies are well documented especially President Richard M. Nixon's speech at the 1973 commencement.

While studying for a B.S. in Business and Religion from Union University, he worked part-time as a reporter for Dun and Bradstreet. After graduating in 1941, he became pastor of the Olive Branch Baptist Church (Mississippi), while also briefly teaching high school science. Continuing with his church duties, he entered the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kentucky before returning to Jackson to serve as the college coordinator for the Forty-fourth College Training Detachment USAAF (Army Air Corps) from 1943-1945. He married Frances Hilliard of Jackson, Tennessee on May 15, 1945. The following year, he received his M.A. in Economics from George Peabody College and became Acting Head of the Commerce Department at Union University. The Millicans moved to Florida in 1948 where Millican studied for his Ph.D. in Business Finance and Economics. At the University of Florida, he worked as a teaching assistant, instructor and finally as Assistant Professor. Although he was appointed Assistant Dean of the College of Business Administration in 1956, he moved almost immediately to Texas where he became Dean and Professor of the School of Business Administration at Hardin-Simmons University. In 1959, he returned to Florida to become Dean of the College of Business Administration at the University of South Florida. "," When Dr. Millican was appointed President of the new university in 1965, the university had no name, no buildings, no faculty and no students; he had to create the university over which he would preside. After Millican's appointment, he hired staff, found premises, and began the slow process of creating his university. He recognized three basic principles which he firmly believed the new institution should adhere to: the value of each human being; the importance of the quality of one's performance; and, the promotion of college spirit. In doing so, he established the twin tenets of \"Accent on the Individual\", \"Accent on Excellence,\" which continue to guide the University, and the motto, \"Reach for the Stars\". In addition, he co-designed the \"Pegasus\" official seal of the university. As early as 1969, Dr. Millican began working to establish a research park associated with the University. Although he retired as President in 1978, others continued his efforts resulting in the opening of the Central Florida Research Park in 1982. After retiring from the presidency, Millican returned to teaching finance as a professor in the College of Business at the University of Central Florida, as it was now known, and earned the title President Emeritus. After retiring from the University in 1981, Dr. Millican became the President of Lake Highland Preparatory School, serving from 1982-1985, and continued as President Emeritus-Consultant until 1993. Dr. Millican returned to serve the University in 1993 as President Emeritus and Special Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer of the UCF Foundation."," In addition to his career in higher education, Charles Millican has worked as a consultant to business firms and Florida Counties on economic growth and financial management and as a church pastor/pulpit supply minister. He chaired the Orange County Community Referendum Committee, which passed the resort tax that built the Orange County Convention Center. As chairman of the Orange County Association for Responsible Development, he created a plan to finance construction of a waste water treatment plant for the southeast quadrant of Orange County. His professional and civic affiliations have included, State Representative of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Board Member of the Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce, Heart of Florida United Way, First Federal Savings and Loan Association, Orlando, United Telecommunications Corporation, Florida and Shands Teaching Hospital, and membership in the Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida and the Downtown Rotary Club, . He has received Distinguished Alumnus awards from both the University of Florida and Union University, and he received honorary LL.D. degrees from Rollins College and UCF.","Processing History  Collection processed by and finding aid prepared by Judith Beale in 2005. Minimal preservation work was necessary; metal paper clips were replaced by plastic clips; newspaper clippings were copied onto acid-free paper, and materials were placed in acid-free folders and cartons. Files arranged chronologically from the back were rearranged chronologically from the front. Publications were removed to be catalogued with other university publications. Sometime previously, most staples had been removed, which made it difficult to identify which papers belonged together. Social Security Numbers were removed. The finding aid was placed into Archon, with adjustments made for Archon and resulting in edition 2, by Mary Rubin in 2015. A quarter box of materials was found in 2019 that contained maps from this collection. They were pulled from the collection sometime prior to 2014. The maps were flattened and re-added into the collection in 2019, resulting in edition 3.","For more information on university archives, please see our website.

Millican was the first President of Florida Technological University, serving from 1 December 1965 until 31 January 1978. This collection of his administrative papers documents the organization of Florida's university system during those years with particular reference to the decision to found a new university in Central Florida and the physical and philosophical construction of the university that would become the University of Central Florida. Millican's papers include his correspondence, speeches and reports, State University System reports, as well as minutes of the Board of Regents and the Council of Presidents meetings. Of particular interest are documents that were written before his appointment, which concern the establishment of the University, initial planning conferences, site selection and legislative lobbying. After his appointment, topics of historical significance include construction, five-year plan, groundbreaking, dedication and presidential inauguration. Photographs are distributed throughout the record group and show faculty, students, staff, administrators, buildings and dignitaries who had any involvement with the University or its president. All aspects of university life are represented in these papers, academic affairs and faculty achievements, student affairs, and administrative decisions. Commencement ceremonies are well documented especially President Richard M. Nixon's speech at the 1973 commencement. Other topics in the collection include evaluation of the president, college housing program, faculty opinions and regional campuses.","UCF University Archives","Florida Technological University","University of Central Florida","Kennedy Space Center","Minute Maid","Little Princess Kindergarten","Board of Regents ","Council of Presidents ","Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce ","Orlando Chamber of Commerce","Seminole County Chamber of Commerce","Charles Norman Millican ","Richard M.

While studying for a B.S. in Business and Religion from Union University, he worked part-time as a reporter for Dun and Bradstreet. After graduating in 1941, he became pastor of the Olive Branch Baptist Church (Mississippi), while also briefly teaching high school science. Continuing with his church duties, he entered the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kentucky before returning to Jackson to serve as the college coordinator for the Forty-fourth College Training Detachment USAAF (Army Air Corps) from 1943-1945. He married Frances Hilliard of Jackson, Tennessee on May 15, 1945. The following year, he received his M.A. in Economics from George Peabody College and became Acting Head of the Commerce Department at Union University. The Millicans moved to Florida in 1948 where Millican studied for his Ph.D. in Business Finance and Economics. At the University of Florida, he worked as a teaching assistant, instructor and finally as Assistant Professor. Although he was appointed Assistant Dean of the College of Business Administration in 1956, he moved almost immediately to Texas where he became Dean and Professor of the School of Business Administration at Hardin-Simmons University. In 1959, he returned to Florida to become Dean of the College of Business Administration at the University of South Florida. "," When Dr. Millican was appointed President of the new university in 1965, the university had no name, no buildings, no faculty and no students; he had to create the university over which he would preside. After Millican's appointment, he hired staff, found premises, and began the slow process of creating his university. He recognized three basic principles which he firmly believed the new institution should adhere to: the value of each human being; the importance of the quality of one's performance; and, the promotion of college spirit. In doing so, he established the twin tenets of \"Accent on the Individual\", \"Accent on Excellence,\" which continue to guide the University, and the motto, \"Reach for the Stars\". In addition, he co-designed the \"Pegasus\" official seal of the university. As early as 1969, Dr. Millican began working to establish a research park associated with the University. Although he retired as President in 1978, others continued his efforts resulting in the opening of the Central Florida Research Park in 1982. After retiring from the presidency, Millican returned to teaching finance as a professor in the College of Business at the University of Central Florida, as it was now known, and earned the title President Emeritus. After retiring from the University in 1981, Dr. Millican became the President of Lake Highland Preparatory School, serving from 1982-1985, and continued as President Emeritus-Consultant until 1993. Dr. Millican returned to serve the University in 1993 as President Emeritus and Special Assistant to the Chief Executive Officer of the UCF Foundation."," In addition to his career in higher education, Charles Millican has worked as a consultant to business firms and Florida Counties on economic growth and financial management and as a church pastor/pulpit supply minister. He chaired the Orange County Community Referendum Committee, which passed the resort tax that built the Orange County Convention Center. As chairman of the Orange County Association for Responsible Development, he created a plan to finance construction of a waste water treatment plant for the southeast quadrant of Orange County. His professional and civic affiliations have included, State Representative of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities, Board Member of the Orlando Area Chamber of Commerce, Heart of Florida United Way, First Federal Savings and Loan Association, Orlando, United Telecommunications Corporation, Florida and Shands Teaching Hospital, and membership in the Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida and the Downtown Rotary Club, . He has received Distinguished Alumnus awards from both the University of Florida and Union University, and he received honorary LL.D. degrees from Rollins College and UCF.","Processing History  Collection processed by and finding aid prepared by Judith Beale in 2005. Minimal preservation work was necessary; metal paper clips were replaced by plastic clips; newspaper clippings were copied onto acid-free paper, and materials were placed in acid-free folders and cartons. Files arranged chronologically from the back were rearranged chronologically from the front. Publications were removed to be catalogued with other university publications. Sometime previously, most staples had been removed, which made it difficult to identify which papers belonged together. Social Security Numbers were removed. The finding aid was placed into Archon, with adjustments made for Archon and resulting in edition 2, by Mary Rubin in 2015. A quarter box of materials was found in 2019 that contained maps from this collection. They were pulled from the collection sometime prior to 2014. The maps were flattened and re-added into the collection in 2019, resulting in edition 3.","For more information on university archives, please see our website.

While his Father was in the navy, George's family lived at Pearl Harbor, and he witnessed the 1941 attack. George himself served in the navy for more than three years as a weather forecaster; for part of the time he was on the USS Bairoko. After graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles with a degree in meteorology in 1955, George Millay worked for a stockbroking firm until 1960. He married Anne Real in 1963; they eventually had three sons and a daughter.","\nIn 1958, Millay opened the Reef restaurant in Los Angeles with David Tallichet. He planned to create a submarine bar there so that customers could view sea creatures while enjoying cocktails. The plan failed because the water in the harbor was too cloudy. However, his interest in marine life introduced him to Dr. Kenneth Norris, curator at Marineland. Together with Milton Shedd and David DeMott, they organized the Marine Park Corporation to create a marine park in San Diego. Sea World opened in 1964 and expanded in 1970 with a park in Ohio followed by the Orlando park in 1972. Sea World Inc. opened an amusement park in Valencia California on 29th May 1971 in partnership with Newhall Land and Farming. Officially named \"Magic Mountain\", the park was designated \"Tragic Mountain\" by a reporter who was injured there. Sea World did not make a profit on the venture and sold out to its partner late in 1971. Millay resigned from Sea World Inc in 1974 because of a disagreement with his partners over how the company should develop.","\nGeorge Millay had spent a lot of time at Sea World in Orlando, and he thought that families would enjoy water activities as a break from the Florida heat. He pulled together ideas from a water playground at the Toronto World's Fair, a flume near Sacramento and a wave pool in Alabama, added a children's playgound, restrooms, gift shop and snack bar to create a new concept. He formed the Leisure Marine Corporation to develop his idea. Initially, the company ran the Seven Seas park in Arlington, TX, for a season, but the venture did not develop further. Wet 'n Wild eventually became a reality in Orlando, where it opened in 1977. The company took over the failing Seven Seas park and redeveloped it into the second Wet 'n Wild in 1983 followed by Las Vegas in 1985. Additional sites opened in Garland, TX, Brazil and Mexico. Wet 'n Wild was named the Best of Aquatics for 2003 by Aquatics International magazine.","\nMillay retired from Wet 'n Wild in 1998, but he continued to work on new projects. He designed and patented a system for moving visitors down into the center of a circular aquarium so that everyone had a good view of the fish. Millay partnered with William Watts and David Powell in creating a company named Sea Venture to sell the system. At the time of his death in 2006, no examples of the system had been sold.","\nGeorge Millay received Lifetime Achievement Awards from the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions and the Themed Entertainment Association, and he was named the Father of the Waterpark Industry by the World Waterpark Association. Tim O'Brien wrote Millay's biography entitled The Wave Maker in 2004.","Collection processed by Judith Beale; finding aid prepared by Judith Beale.

Father Jacob Levine, mother Fanny, and sister Lillian. During the early days of the Great Depression, he, and his older sister, were placed into a children's home because his parents were no longer able to feed them. After the depression ended, he and his sister moved back into the family's apartment and at ten-years-old Seymour began delivering silk ties his father made to business customers which heled support the family. Soon afterwards, his father bought him a cornet which began his life-long musical career. He graduated high school at age sixteen after skipping two grades. ","In 1940, Seymour joined, as a founding member, the New York Post Office Symphony Orchestra playing the cornet. However, his life changed in March, 1941, when he was offered a job with the Federal government in Washington, D.C. ","During the last twenty years of his thirty-three-year career with the Interstate Commerce Commission, a now defunct agency, Seymour composed official correspondence for the agency. Composing was his passion in life –– letters, music, lyrics and, later, musical plays. ","Also, in 1941, Seymour and his fiancé, Shirley Rothbard, secretly married so she can (sic) join him in Washington, D.C. They were officially married three months later with a large, planned wedding in New York City. They had two children and remained happily married until her untimely death from cancer in 1961 when she was thirty-nine years old. ","Seymour wrote his first song titled \"Tappin' Away\" including both the music and lyrics in 1939 and completed his sixty-third song in 1989. While living in Greenbelt, Maryland, from 1941 until mid-1982 (except when he was in the U.S. Army in World War II including fighting in the Battle of the Bulge), he was always busy with music and received many awards with his talent. Seymour joined the Greenbelt Concert Band and was an active member for many years. The two musical plays entitled \"Undershaft\" copyrighted in 1983 and \"David\" copyrighted in 1985, were written while he was living in Pikesville, Maryland.
