What many say is the nation's most beautiful uni- versity sprowls across 1700 acres of the Florida Sun- coast. When the University of South Florida opened in 1960, it was the first state university to be com- pletely planned and constructed in this century, and since then it has become one of the fastest growing educational institutions in the United States. By the fall of 1972, credit course enrollment had reached 18,988, making USF the third largest of Flo- rida's nine state universities. USF is located in the heart of a metropolitan area of 1.5 million persons who comprise 25 percent of Florida's population and is the only public university serving them. It has thus been called a prototype of the future e the urban university. Sixty-five percent of the student body are commut- ers and 45 percent are employed either part of full- time. Married students comprise 36 percent of the total population. The Tampa campus consists of 1,690 acres, includ- ing an 18-hole championship golf course and 0 rec- reation area on the nearby Hillsborough River. The St. Petersburg campus consists of 11 acres of buy-front land on Bayboro Harbor and is within walking distance of downtown St. Petersburg. The University consists of nine colleges: Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Fine Arts, Language Literature, Medical, Nursing, Natural Sci- ence, and Social and Behavioral Science. Together they offer degree programs in 111 academic areas, 82 of which are offered at the graduate level. the Ph.D. degree is offered in biology, chemistry, educa- tion, English, mathematics and psychology. Entertainment is provided in the forms of theatrical productions, concerts, lectures and films. Facilities are also provided for billiards, table tennis and other table games. The hub of campus leisure life, the Uni- versity Center, includes lounges, a cafeteria, dining rooms, a snack bar and craft and photography areas. Student organizations run the gamut from the social ifraternities and sororitiesi to the religious, service, honorary and special interest. Comprehensive health care is available to full-time students through the University Student Health Cen- ter. The Center, staffed with doctors and registered nurses, provides a 14-bed infirmory and 24-hour service seven days a week. Professional services are also available to USF stu- dents in the areas of reading-study skills, vocational guidance, personal counseling, psychiatric consulta- tion, tutoring, speech and hearing and career place- ment. USF teams, called the itGolden Brahmans, cur- rently compete intercollegiately in baseball, basket- ball, golf, swimming, soccer and men's and women's tennis.
