A building with a purpose Sullivan House is not just an outlet for students, but an outlet through which we can learn Here, in common fellowship and for brotherly communion are welcome those of every hope, philosophy and faith that opens their hearts to the presence and influence of a loving God and which draws them with high resolve towards their goal for a perfect and enduring life for themselves and for all mankind. George Hammond Sullivan Completing its second year on the Rollins College campus, Sullivan House, under the direction of Reverend John Langfitt, offers students a unique opportunity for self dis- covery through adventure, religious retreats and service. Tubing and canoe trips, a week- end at a Trappist Monastery and working with the World Hunger Committee and Daily Bread are just a few of the ways students can come to know themselves. Adventures like the tubing and canoe excursions give students an opportunity to see the natural beauty of the central Florida area. For those who like to rough it , a special back pack tr ip to the wilds of Cumberland Island, Geor- gia allows the students to live, work and survive with nature. As people involve them- selves in these activities, they find a comra- derie and growth with one another that adds to their lives, very often in unforgettable ways. An adjunct to the Chapel and Campus Ministry, Sullivan House participates and supports all that is associated with the Chap- el. Vespers were held every Wednesday evening at the Chapel for those who wanted to enjoy 30 to 45 minutes of a religious service. Occasionally, there were special Vespers service: the Hostage Service and The Draft Forum. The commemorative ser- vice for the Hostages was to reflect on the continual suffering and hope all of America is sharing with our fellow brothers who are being held unjustifiably. The Draft Forum allowed students between the ages of 18 and 20 to learn more of what the draft means to them and how it could affect their lives. It also gave them an opportunity to ask ques- tions and openly discuss the pros and cons of the Selective Service program. Other activities sponsored by Sullivan House such as the World News Forums, Chritsmas Vespers, Christmas Tree Trim and Hanukkah allow students of all faiths to unite as one and learn, work and grow as individuals contributing to one another ' s lives. Members of each student organization and the Campus Ministry Team make up the Sullivan House Board of Directors. We dedicate this building to good times . . . to a new awareness and rediscovery of nature and our part in the cycle of life ... to deepen our concern for the hungry and needy. From the Liturgy of Rededication Fr. Joseph D. Calderone, O.S.A. Spring 1979 Sullivan House was the gift of the Alger- non Sydney Sullivan Foundation of New York and was named in memory of its founder and first president who died in 1887. Ground-breaking ceremonies took place on May 25, 1947. President Holt said at that time: the Sullivan Building will be used for anything that is for the good of Rollins, Winter Park, the State, and perhaps, the world. Thirty-two years later, in the spring of 1979, Sullivan House was rededicated with the same purpose as expressed by President Holt. Sullivan House grows with Rollins as it touches the lives of all those who come in contact with it in a very special and meaning- ful way. 22
