College Yearbooks

College Yearbooks

"The publication of yearbooks at Florida State University began in 1901
when West Florida Seminary published the Argo. Publication under that
title continued through the transition to Florida State College with two
more editions before it was halted when the school was renamed and
repurposed as the Florida Female College in 1905. In 1909, the name of
the school changed to Florida State College for Women and, one year
later, the institution published its first yearbook entitled Flastacowo.
After the 1915 edition, publication was suspended during World War I
and resumed in 1921. In 1947, the school returned to coeducational as
Florida State University and in 1948 it published its first yearbook,
Tally Ho!. After the student-published 1971 edition, publication of the
Tally Ho! was halted. Since then, the yearbook has been published under
various titles including Tally Ho (1973), Artifacts (1980-1981,
1985-1986), and finally, Renegade (1988-1997, 2006-2008). Publication of
the yearbooks ceased after the 2008 Renegade."

Many may not know this, but FSU actually digitized all of their yearbooks and put them online a few years ago and you can view them all now here, even as the College for Women and before, going back to 1901.

There is a gif of the yearbook under each pic of the cover and if you click the year links it will take you to the yearbook page so you can browse it, put it on autopage turn, have it read to you and/or download them. Some of the old pics and stories in the football sections are fun to look at. Enjoy.

University of Florida "Seminole" Yearbooks
(Just some that I could find quickly & easily)

UF used "The Seminole" as their yearbook officially from 1910-1982 (although I found one from 1905, but they call it "c/o 1911 yearbook) and then began calling it The Tower. Most can be found here, but I found a few more online elsewhere. No idea why it took them so long to rename their yearbook.
