Florida Southern College
The oldest private college in Florida, Florida Southern College was founded in Orlando in 1883 as South Florida Institute.
Soon afterward, it moved to Leesburg. In 1885, a college curriculum was added and the college was opened to male and female students. In 1901, the college moved to Sutherland, now Palm Harbor, and in 1906, it was renamed Southern College. The college temporarily moved to Clearwater from 1921 to 1922, and in 1922, it moved again to the shores of Lake Hollingsworth in Lakeland. In 1935, the Trustees adopted the name Florida Southern College.
Despite changes in name and location, the College’s affiliation with the Methodist Church has remained constant, shaping its mission and traditions.
