Despite being the oldest private college in the state, Florida Southern is at the forefront of providing students with the knowledge and skills necessary to serve and succeed in the rapidly changing global context. Florida Southern has always been committed to a holistic education that seeks to create an environment where the student is encouraged to grow intellectually, socially, morally, and spiritually. We achieve this goal through an innovative curriculum and a pedagogical approach that combines a strong foundation in the liberal arts with real-world, hands-on application through engaged learning and experiential education. Our goal is to empower students to make a positive and consequential impact upon the world. Whether you are a first-year undergraduate or a student in one of our graduate programs, you are on a journey of exploration. The faculty members of Florida Southern are your guides, and this catalog is the “field manual” that will assist you along the way. I wish you the best for the 2018–2019 academic year.

The mission also includes pre- serving the world-renowned Frank Lloyd Wright campus and visitor program. College Vision Florida Southern College will achieve national recognition for providing a transformational education for students through its distinctive synthesis of liberal arts and professional programs and focus on student development through co-curricular and service learning programs. It will become a national model for engaged learning in order to achieve the learning outcomes stu- dents need to thrive in a global society. As a result of its pragmatic approach to liberal learning, the global perspective of its academic programs, effective engaged learning pedagogy, and dis- tinctive learning outcomes in all disciplines, Florida Southern will ascend to the top 25 colleges/ universities in its Carnegie classification. Maintaining its affiliation with the United Methodist Church, Florida Southern will serve as the preeminent mid-sized institution within the denom- ination, always striving to foster students’ spiritual growth. Also, preserving the campus’ iconic and significant historical Frank Lloyd Wright structures that serve as a “living museum” to accom- modate the living-learning programs of the College, and promotion of education programs to perpetuate the legacy of America’s greatest architect, is included in the vision. Florida Southern History at a Glance Florida Southern College—the oldest private college in the state—traces its Florida roots to 1852, when the Methodist Conference founded Florida Seminary in Micanopy. The Conference established South Florida Seminary in Orlando in 1883. In 1885, the school moved to Leesburg, the college degree was awarded, and Florida Conference College was officially chartered and opened to both male and female students. In 1901, the growing college moved to Sutherland (now Palm Harbor) on the Gulf Coast and in 1906 was renamed Southern College. The College remained at Sutherland until fires in the early 1920s forced the school temporarily to move to Clearwater Beach. In 1922, the College moved to the shores of Lake Hollingsworth in Lakeland. In 1935, the trustees adopted Florida Southern College as the corporate title. Florida Southern College Today The campus comprises some 70+ buildings on 100 acres of land. Thirteen of the College’s structures were designed by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright in the 1940s and 1950s. Mr. Wright said his design was to have all the buildings “flow from the ground in harmony with the natural landscape.” In that functional, yet exquisite environment, they exhibit the traits that Mr. Wright intended: organic union among the earth, sunlight, and local flora. The Wright buildings include the Annie Pfeiffer Chapel, which has become an iconic symbol of the College; the Thad Buckner Adminis-

Firpo ii ABSTRACT The Orlando Metropolitan Statistical Area became the fastest growing Puerto Rican population since 1980.1 While the literature has grown regarding Orlando‘s Puerto Rican community, no works deeply analyze the push and pull factors that led to the mass migration of Puerto Ricans to Central Florida. In fact, it was the combination of deteriorating economies in both Puerto Rico and New York City (the two largest concentrations of Puerto Ricans in the United States) and the rise of employment opportunities and cheap cost of living in Central Florida that attract Puerto Ricans from the island the diaspora to the region.

Berson 2 To Mom and Dad Now you can finally tell everyone that your son is a doctor. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost, I would like to thank my entire committee for their thoughtful comments, critiques, and overall consideration. The chair, Dr. Jack E. Davis, has earned my unending gratitude both for his patience and for putting me—and keeping me—on track toward a final product of which I can be proud. Many members of the faculty of the Department of History were very supportive throughout my time at the University of Florida. Also, this would have been a far less rewarding experience were it not for many of my colleagues and classmates in the graduate program. I also am indebted to the outstanding administrative staff of the Department of History for their tireless efforts in keeping me enrolled and on track. I thank all involved for the opportunity and for the ongoing support. The Ray and Mitchum families, the Cheatoms, Jim Buckner, David Cook, and Tim Hollis all graciously gave of their time and hospitality to help me with this work, as did the DeBary family at the Marion County Museum of History and Scott Mitchell at the Silver River Museum and Environmental Center. David Breslauer has my gratitude for providing a copy of his book.

Chatham, Virginia 24531 February 2019 Dear Students, Parents and Guardians: The Course Selection Guide for Pittsylvania County High Schools is provided to serve as a guide to the regulations, pro- cedures, and programs offered in the high schools. We hope you will use this document for a reference as you plan your high school sequence of courses. Both general and specific information about curricular offerings and services are provided. In our efforts to be clear and consise, we have written brief, objective descriptions of the many elements of the programs. You may obtain more information on most of the topics by contacting the guidance counselor at each of the high schools. The Course Selection Guide 2019-20 will simplify the process in which the planning and selection of a challenging course of study is conducted for each student. All students have many choices as they pursue their interests and expand their experiences. By working together, the student, the parents, and the counselor can plan the student's years in school and can make appropriate revisions along the way. The student's long-range goals, as well as the very important re- quirements for graduation, should guide decision-making, and this document supports that process. Contact with the Guidance Office will reveal many other supports, such as providing small-group tutorial assistance in many departments in which students are preparing for end-of-course tests.

Lansing Williams, Director The Accounting Minor covers knowledge of the accounting principles and practices fundamental to the capture and analysis of financial information about the firm, the use of accounting information to plan and control activities, accounting theory, and practical application of accounting in the areas such as taxation and auditing. Once basic skills of reading financial statements and balance sheets have been learned, accounting is a discipline marked by critical thinking, analytic precision, ethical awareness, and clarity with words, numbers, and visual display of information. Accountants ask questions, communicate answers, and clarify the difficult choices that organizations, both for-profit and not-for-profit, face with regards to budgets and strategic planning. They also ensure that organizations adhere to ethical and legal guidelines in gathering and reporting information and in their internal and external activities. This minor is suitable for students desiring to pursue careers in both private and public accounting and offers courses needed for entry into graduate studies in accounting. While internships are not required for the minor, they are strongly encouraged. Please contact the Director of the Minor or the Chair of the Department of Business Management for information regarding earning academic credit for internships. Four Core Courses ECN 111.
