Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-Seventh Annual Catalogue of Rollins College, 1911-1912, Vol. 5: Announcements for 1912-1913 The college is situated in Winter Park, five miles north of Orlando, the county seat of Orange county. It is on the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air [line railways, and is easily acces sible from all parts of the State. The town is in the high pine region, and is surrounded by beautiful spring-fed lakes, several of which are connected by navigable streams. From the shores of these lakes the land rises to a considerable height, furnishing perfect drainage and providing most desirable sites for building. The village is one of the most beautiful in the State. Its streets and sidewalks are paved, shaded by rows of large water oaks, and lighted by electricity, while clayed and shaded roads connect it with other towns to the north and south, and provide attractive drives and bicycle paths. It is noted also for its general health fulness, and is especially free from malarial diseases. Students afflicted with tuberculosis or other infectious diseases are not received. The college is supplied with water from an artesian well more than one hundred feet in depth, which affords an abundance of pure water. Winter Park was designed by its founders to be a center of educational influence. This purpose has been steadily kept in view and has made the town both a home and a winter resort for intelligent and cultured people. It has ready access to the com mercial world, but is sufficiently removed to afford an agreeable retirement. Being without saloons - Orange county being dry.
