Background

Scope and content:

Collection includes notable events, members of the campus community, and general scenes that document the campus and student experience at USF St. Petersburg. Materials consist of scrapbooks, slides, photographs, and photographic negatives from the mid 1960s through 1989.

Coverage began in the late 1960s, at a time when the campus covered the peninsula presently used by the College of Marine Science. Many photographs show student events and activities at the campus pool, in "A" and "B" Buildings, and along Bayboro Harbor. Photographs from the 1980s document the expansion of campus facilities with the opening of the original Poynter Library (now Bayboro Hall), Davis Hall (formerly Bayboro Hall), and Coquina Hall.
