Children were being orphaned due to farm and industrial accidents and numerous poor families had to give up children they could no longer afford. Many children were abused and there were few laws that protected children's rights. Homeless children had little place to go where they could be safe, properly cared for, and loved.","\nIn response to this increasing crisis, the National Children's Home Society was formed in Illinois in 1883 to help place children who had been orphaned in farming and industrial accidents, spreading to several other states over the next decade. The Revered D. W. Comstock came to Jacksonville, Florida in 1902 as a representative of the National Children's Home Society to help organize the state's first child welfare society. On November 17, 1902, with the help of Rev. D. W. Comstock and Jacksonville's city and religious leaders, The Children's Home Society of Florida (CHSFL) was established. The welfare of the child was the society's primary focus, making sure that if the family could not be preserved that the child was placed in a happy and healthy home.","\nThe CHSFL was developed as a non-profit organization, relying solely on donations from the community. Fund-raising efforts began as administrative duties were carried out in private homes around the city. The children were also were being cared for in private residences as there was not yet a home secured for the society to board its charges. The CHSFL committed itself to not only children but to babies who were not accepted until the age of three at state orphanages (Mahoney, 5). Money was tight for the society and within the first few years, the CHSFL found itself in deep debt. By September of 1910, the CHSFL was facing the possibility of ending operations when a new state superintendent for the society entered its doors. Marcus C. Fagg was just 24 when he took control of the CHSFL but within a few short months, he had already obtained funding to start his first appeals drive. Many in the society to this day believe that it was Marcus C. Fagg who saved the CHSFL from closing its doors and built it to the standards that society members and workers adhere to today. Fagg's compassion towards children also did not go unnoticed; from his early years with the CHSFL, many children he helped referred to him as \"Daddy\" Fagg as a token of their appreciation for finding them loving homes.","\nMarcus Fagg brought innovative solutions to a dire financial situation. Using land donated or sold at cost to the society, Fagg either rented or sold land at higher costs to turn a profit. Fagg also helped poor families by renting them homes at drastically reduced rental costs with an option to later buy the homes. Marcus Fagg helped dozens of poor families regain their footing while also helping the CHSFL emerge from a deep hole of financial debt.","\nThough Marcus Fagg began to save the society financially, the society still fell on hard times. The country became entangled in the agony of the Great Depression in the 1930s and the CHSFL suffered with the rest of the nation. The Miami receiving home was lost due to a lack of finances but was thankfully picked up and operated by the Junior League until 1936 when CHSFL was able to once again run the home. Marcus Fagg also made history in 1932 by becoming the first chairman of the new Florida State Welfare Board. Through the 1940s and 1950s, CHSFL was instrumental in securing rights and welfare laws for children nationwide. CHSFL was one of the founding members of the Child Welfare League of America and was one of the only societies in the country to handle state adoptions without the aid of a state agency. The society also saw rapid growth, thanks in part to the massive fund-raising performed by Marcus Fagg; several new division offices opened throughout the state, many of whom offered special services for children. CHSFL also began offering services to unwed mothers, further committing themselves to the family rather than just simply finding homes for children.","\nOne of the saddest moments for the CHSFL was the loss of their mentor and leader, Marcus C. \"Daddy\" Fagg in 1958. After Fagg's passing, newspapers throughout Florida ran headlines announcing the loss of a great state hero. Buried in a simple grave in Jacksonville, Florida, Fagg's life and legacy still serves as a reminder to the CHSFL of their continued effort to help abused and orphaned children in the state of Florida.","\nSegregation and integration played an important role for CHSFL in the 1960s as the society began caring for and adopting out African-American children from their receiving homes. Historically, the society took in mostly white children. As the Civil Rights movement grew in the 1960's, the society re-examined the scope of its adoption policies and began taking in and offering adoption services for the African-American community. This was a significant development both for the society and for the Civil Rights movement; African-American children were being given the same adoption services as white children at a time when the issue of race was dominant in society and politics. As the country rapidly changed, so did the society, offering for the first time services in schools for handicapped, delinquent, and abused children as well children living in racially mixed households. These services would grow and define the society through to the end of the 1990s.","\nJust three years into the new millennium and the society's second century of service, the CHSFL moved its headquarters from its birthplace in Jacksonville to more centrally located offices in Winter Park, Florida. Now over one hundred years old, the CHSFL offers fourteen divisions that serve the entire state of Florida.","Collection processed by Ari Karlene Anderson; finding aid prepared by April Karlene Anderson and Katie Seeler.

Among his father's numerous patients  was a neighborhood boy treated for ocular damage after being shot in the eye by the young Avellanal, as well as a child persuaded into testing out one of José Luis' new inventions: an electric chair.","As punishment for his mischief, José Luis found himself in solitary confinement, but devised a plan of escape that involved stealing his father's vehicle. Having not yet learned how to drive, his plan of escape was a failure, and he found himself being shipped off to military school in Georgia.","José Luis eventually returned to Tampa, but not before getting himself into a scrape in Lebanon, Tennessee, where he was charged with kidnapping a young woman and possession of narcotics.","Upon his return to Ybor City, Avellanal took up residence at El Pasaje Hotel, where he conducted experiments in cryogenics and attempted to publish articles on the resurrection of dead bodies. From his El Pasaje Hotel residence, Avellanal also entered the race for state senator, held services as an ordained Baptist minister, practiced medicine as a gynecologist and plastic surgeon (with diplomas obtained during his absence in Cuba), and established Southern University, a college offering degrees (but no courses) to the masses. A trial ensued in which Avellanal defended himself against charges of running a diploma mill, and in 1947, the Southern University Charter was revoked.","Avellanal was the creator and founder of numerous organizations, including the Legión de Honor de la República de Cuba (Legion of Honor of the Republic of Cuba), an organization that bestowed honors and awards to worthy individuals such as Fulgencio Batista of Cuba, Chinese Congresswoman Grace Yi Hsu, and Norberto Lopez Avelar, then governor of the Mexican state of Morelos. While in Mexico, Avellanal obtained the title of Lieutenant General and was often seen in full uniform at Ybor City events.","In the early 1970s, Avellanal joined the advisory committee for Ybor City's Hillsborough Community College campus and led efforts to save the El Pasaje Hotel building, for which he received a preservation award from U.S. Senator Richard Stone. José Luis Avellanal died in 1982, and remains one of the most colorful characters in Ybor City memory.","Note written by Jean McAllister, 2011","Jose Ramon Avellanal Collection, USF Libraries - Tampa Special Collections, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL.

Folders are usually arranged in chronological order.","H. Trevor Colbourn was born in Armidale, New South Wales, Australia on 24 February 1927, but moved to England as a child. Known by his second name, Trevor Colbourn earned his BA at the University of London then moved to the United States of America in 1948 to further his education at the College of William and Mary; finally earning his Ph.D. in American History at Johns Hopkins in 1953. In 1949, Colbourn married Beryl Evans and they eventually had two daughters.","Dr. Colbourn taught at Penn State and Indiana University in Bloomington before moving into administration. In 1967, he became Graduate Dean at the University of New Hampshire. In 1973 he was appointed Academic Vice President of San Diego State University and eventually served as Acting President from 1977-1978 before becoming President of Florida Technological University in 1978.","As President, Colbourn's first action was to implement the university's name change to the University of Central Florida. During his tenure, enrollment increased sixty percent to more than 18,000 students, and the university implemented one of the first telephone registration systems in the country. Dr. Colbourn established the College of Arts and Sciences, the Undergraduate Studies Office, the Football program and the Honors Program. Under his guidance, the university gained its first stand alone doctoral programs in Computer Science, Business Administration and Psychology (Human Factors). New programs were implemented in Hospitality Management, Special Education, Aerospace Engineering, Information Systems Technology and Computer Technology, and master's degree programs were also expanded. Research increased with the creation of the Center for Research in Electro-Optics and Lasers, the Institute for Simulation and Training, the Sinkhole Institute and the Central Florida Research Park. Unusually for a university president, Dr. Colbourn tried to teach one course per year.","The campus increased in size with the building of the Wayne Densch Sports Center, the establishment of Greek Park, the extension of the library, an increase in the numbers of dormitories, and the construction of new buildings for the Fine Arts and the Colleges of Business Administration and Engineering. Additionally, the Arena, the Student Union and the Barbara Ying Center were planned. Regional Campuses gained the Lifelong Learning Center at Brevard Campus and the Daytona Beach Joint Use Facility.","After retiring as president, Dr. Colbourn returned to teaching history full-time at the university. In 1990, he earned the title President Emeritus and assumed the role of University Historian in 1991. As part of the latter appointment, he compiled an oral history of the university. Dr. Colbourn wrote extensively on the American Revolutionary period and his books may be found in the university library. Among his many appointments, Dr. Colbourn served as State Representative for the American Association of State Colleges and Universities from 1983 to 1986, President of the Florida Association of Colleges and Universities in 1985, Chairman of the Air University Board of Visitors, and Chairman of the Douglass Adair Memorial Prize Committee. He also served on the Board of Directors of the Greater Orlando Chamber of Commerce, Economic Development Commission of Mid-Florida, United Way of Orange County, Florida Endowment Fund for Higher Education, and the UCF/Orlando Shakespeare Festival. Despite his third retirement from the university in 2006, Dr. Colbourn continues to support the university of which he has been a vital part for almost thirty years.","Collection processed by and finding aid prepared by Judith Beale in 2007. A fading fax was retyped and printed on acid-neutral paper. Photographs were removed to the University Photographs Collection unless context dictated that they remain in the collection, and audio visual materials were removed to the Audio Visual Collection. News clippings were separated from other documents by acid neutral paper. Some publications were removed for cataloging. An oversize proclamation was scanned and printed and may be found in Certificates and Plaques with a digital file also available. Rusted paper clips were removed and replaced with plastic clips. All materials were rehoused in pH neutral folders and boxes. Duplicates were removed and social security numbers were obliterated. Little rearrangement was required as the records were in good order. Only changes necessary to make the structure clearer were carried out. The finding aid was updated for consistency among all collections by Mary Rubin in 2012, resulting in edition 2. The finding aid was placed into Archon, with adjustments made for Archon and resulting in edition 3, by Mary Rubin in 2015. The acquisition method field and the subjects were updated by Kryslynn Collazo in 2018, resulting in edition 4. Data (subseries that were actually folders were split into subseries and folders) was cleaned up as well.","For more information on university archives, please see our website. Further information about this collection may be found in the University of Central Florida Office of the President Records, including the collections of the individual university presidents, the University of Central Florida Seal Collection, the H. Trevor Colbourn Oral History Collection, the Audio, Visual, and Multi-Media Collection, and the University Photograph Collection.","Many of the materials in this collection were created by Dr. Colbourn's predecessor, Dr. Charles N. Millican. This situation occurred because the same executive secretary, Miss Mildred Kennedy, served the first three presidents. First retiring during the tenure of the third president, Kennedy returned to serve as Dr. Colbourn's secretary. Materials, therefore, remained with the creating office until it was finally closed when they both retired in 2006.","Series I: State University System, 1965-1995 contains materials that document the broad scope of the State University System, the entity governed by the Board of Regents from 1965 to 2001. It shows both Dr. Colbourn's and Dr. Millican's work with the State University System. Most of these records were created in connection with audits or by the Chancellor's office.","Series II: Academic Affairs, 1967-2003 holds records concerning the academic life of the University. This series includes documents about individual colleges, branch campuses, faculty, research, Undergraduate Studies, Extended Studies, the library and WUCF. Materials of interest include individual department files, the Sinkhole Research Institute, Center for Research in Electro-Optics and Lasers (CREOL) and the Florida Solar Energy Center.","Series III: Student Affairs, 1967-2003 contains materials that relate to aspects of university life that fell under the auspices of the Associate Vice-President for Student Affairs or that directly interested students. This series includes information about housing, health services, recreational services, orientation, financial aid, Homecoming, and international students. Information on Student Government, Greek life and other student associations may also be found here.","Series IV: University Relations, 1964-2003 holds materials concerning the university's relationships with outside individuals and companies. Many of the materials in this series relate to the Foundation that raises money for the University. Other materials document alternative sources of funding and ways of marketing the university including relationships with alumni, community members and leaders.","Series V: Administration and Finance, 1966-1996 contains material that shows the variety of subjects monitored by this division. It oversaw such diverse matters as personnel, physical planning, policing, and safety as well as the university's finances.","Series VI: President's Office, 1948-2005 holds materials relating to matters in which the president was directly involved. Within the university, the name change, strategic planning, construction, commencement, Central Florida Research Park and the football program are all major topics. In the community, the president was involved with the chamber of commerce, local donors, the Atlantic Center for the Arts and built relationships during many special events. Statewide, the president necessarily dealt with all aspects of government as well as state associations and other universities and colleges. Nationally, the president was involved with educational organizations. Finally, this series documents Dr. Colbourn's research interests and his activities after his tenure as president.

Millican, H. Trevor Colbourn, Steven Altman and John C. Hitt. An acting president, Leslie Ellis served between Dr. Millican and Dr. Colbourn and interim president, Robert A. Bryan, served between Dr. Altman and Dr. Hitt. Each man contributed to the creation of these records, and many files include correspondence from several of them; some files even have at least one document produced by every man. The Office of the President was organized by an executive secretary: Mildred Kennedy worked for Dr. Millican, Dr. Ellis, Dr. Colbourn and Dr. Altman; Victoria Brown worked for Dr. Altman, Dr. Bryan and Dr. Hitt.

It shows the president's work with both the State University System and federal entities in dealing with the university's operations and budgetary concerns. Most of these records were created by or for the Chancellor, Board of Regents and Council of Presidents. This series includes information about the dissolution of the Board of Regents.","Series II: Academic Affairs, 1973-2004 holds records concerning the academic life of the University. This series includes documents about individual colleges, centers and institutes, branch campuses, faculty, research, Undergraduate Studies, the library, WUCF, programs and Founders' Day. Documents written in Russian are included in the file concerning the Florida/USSR International Linkage Institute and the Chinese language documents are in the International Programs file.

This series includes information about housing and how it was financed, food service, the building of the Student Union and the International Student Center. It also holds materials on Student Government, greek life and other student associations.","Series IV: University Relations, 1969-2003 holds materials concerning the university's relationships with outside individuals and companies. Many of the materials in this series relate to the Foundation that raises money for the University. The Foundation's files mostly consist of Board Meeting minutes, budgetary concerns, scholarship fund-raisers and the building of the President's House. The University Club files document the public discussion that followed when the Foundation decided to accept scholarship funds from the club, which did not admit women or minorities as members. Other materials document alternative sources of funding and ways of marketing the university including relationships with alumni, community members and leaders, and with the State University System that governed UCF during this period.","Series V: Administration and Finance, 1968-2000 contains a small amount of material that shows the variety of subjects monitored by this division. It oversees such departments as Human Resources, Facilities Planning and the police as well as the university's finances. Budget files provide a glimpse of how money is spent and accounted for at the institution, and the other files show how costs impact every aspect of the organization including buildings, campus services and personnel.","Series VI: President's Office, 1968-2008 holds materials relating to matters in which the president was directly involved. This series above others shows the range of a president's work nationally, statewide, locally and within the university. Government, associations, businesses, community involvement and university policy all require the president's direct attention, and examples of all these aspects of his work may be found in the alphabetical files and the chronological files. One large group of files documents intercollegiate athletics. Personal files show UCF presidents' commitment to community involvement as well as the advancement of Orlando as a whole. Within the correspondence files are form letters written to the entire University, letters of complaint, praise, invitation or thanks, occasional photographs, requests to serve on committees, correspondence with officials of the government and the State University System, agreements with partners, and information concerning local organizations and businesses. All types of correspondence were sampled to form a representative selection of the types of correspondence written and received by the president. Document type files include reports, appointment books, news clippings and commemorative materials. Finally some files document the activities undertaken by Dr. Hitt's Chief of Staff.","Unpublished manuscripts are protected by copyright.
