Founded by the United Methodist Church in 1883, 

Florida Southern College is one of the oldest private colleges 

in the state of Florida. With an enrollment of approximately 

1,900 students, Florida Southern offers 39 undergraduate 

majors and distinctive graduate programs in business 

administration, education, and nursing. 

Florida Southern is listed in the prestigious Fiske Guide 

To Colleges, the nation’s top-selling college guide, and is 

annually ranked high in U.S. News & World Report’s listing 

of the best comprehensive colleges in the South. Studies 

show that approximately 90 percent of Florida Southern 

graduates are working full-time or are enrolled in graduate 

school within six months of graduation. 

Some of Florida Southern’s prominent alumni include 

professional golfers Lee Janzen and Rocco Mediate; current 

Major League Baseball player Matt Joyce (Tampa Bay); 

Jim France, Chairman and CEO of International Speedway 

Corp.; Publix Super Markets, Inc. Vice Chairman Barney 

Barnett; and Florida Supreme Court Justice Fred Lewis. 

Situated on the north shore of scenic Lake Hollingsworth, 

Florida Southern is the home of the world’s largest 

single-site collection of architecture by renowned architect 

Frank Lloyd Wright, including the recently refurbished 

Water Dome. The 100-acre campus also features a number 

of other outstanding facilities - the 2,500-seat George W. 

Jenkins Field House; Barnett Field (for softball and soccer); 

the 1,800-seat Branscomb Auditorium; 13 residence halls (all 

wired to the Internet); the Robert A. Davis Performing Arts 

Center; the Roux Library; and the Nina B. Hollis Wellness 

Center, which includes a state-of-the art fitness center, recreational 

facilities, and an NCAA competition-sized outdoor 

swimming pool. 

Located in Lakeland (pop. 90,000), Florida Southern 

is in the heart of dynamic and growing central Florida and 

is only about an hour’s drive from the major metropolitan 

areas of Tampa and Orlando. Such well-known attractions 

as Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Epcot Center, 

Sea World, and Busch Gardens are only a short drive from 

the campus. Major League Baseball’s Detroit Tigers make 

Lakeland their annual spring training home, while several 

other major league teams train nearby. Money Magazine has 

ranked Lakeland among the top ten “Best Places to Live in 

America” for medium-sized southern cities.

Florida Southern College 

Frank Lloyd Wright’s 

“Child of the Sun” 

The Thad Buckner Building is home to the Frank 

Lloyd Wright “Child of the Sun” Visitor Center. 

Florida Southern is home 

to the world’s only Frank 

Lloyd Wright-designed 

planetarium. 

Frank Lloyd Wright often visited 

Florida Southern College during 

his 20-year relationship with 

the college. 

Founded by the United Methodist Church, Florida 

Southern College is one of the oldest private colleges in the 

state, tracing its beginnings to a small seminary in Orlando 

in 1883. The tie to its founding church has remained constant 

and is today, a proud part of the College’s heritage and a 

bright beacon for the future. 

Florida Southern moved to Lakeland in the heart of 

Florida’s citrus belt in 1922 and began the construction of a 

campus that would eventually become a national landmark. 

The beautiful 100-acre campus, on the north shore of Lake 

Hollingsworth, includes the world’s largest collection of 

buildings by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright. 

Florida Southern’s West Campus, now known throughout 

the world, actually had its inception in the mind of Dr. Ludd 

M. Spivey, president of the college from 1925-1957. 

The Danforth Chapel is one of two chapels on 

campus designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. 

The Nina B. Hollis Wellness Center houses a fullsized 

basketball court, weight and aerobic rooms, 

and a student lounge and is adjacent to an NCAA 

regulation size swimming pool. 

Annie Pfeiffer Chapel, completed in 1941, 

was the first of Wright’s designs at Florida 

Southern College. 

In 1935 he conceived the idea of an ultra-modern campus, 

designed by the world’s leading architect. Ground was broken 

two years later for the first building in the Wright collection, 

the Annie Pfeiffer Chapel. 

What Frank Lloyd Wright created on the campus is amazing. 

His original work is still as modern and exciting as the 

newest buildings still on many architect’s drawing boards. 

It is, perhaps, symbolic that the greatest concentration of 

his genius should be located at a small, private institution of 

higher learning. Perhaps he describes it best, “...out of the 

ground and into the light, a child of the sun...the college of 

tomorrow.”


Dr. Anne B. Kerr 

College President 

S i n c e h e r u n a n i m o u s 

appointment as its 17th president 

in 2004, Dr. Kerr has provided 

Florida Southern College with 

extraordinary vision and leadership 

that is enhancing the student 

experience and increasing the 

College’s national prominence. 

Under her guidance, the institution 

has renewed its commitment to 

educating the whole person-academically, socially, spiritually, and 

physically-so that students leave prepared to make a positive and 

consequential impact on our world. 

Early in her tenure, Dr. Kerr led a comprehensive Strategic 

Plan designed to enrich all facets of the College’s student-centered 

culture. She is dedicated to enhancing a student life culture that 

provides opportunities for active learning and leadership; promoting 

a scholarly environment where professors have outstanding records 

of achievement that support innovative, engaged, and personalized 

instruction; and to strengthening further the College’s outstanding 

Pete Meyer 

Director of Athletics 

Pete Meyer is in his first year as 

the Director of Athletics at Florida 

Southern College. Named to the 

position Feb. 21, 2008, he officially 

assumed his duties July 1, when 

Lois Webb retired. Since 1972, he 

is just the fourth person to occupy 

the position of athletics director at 

Florida Southern – following Hal 

Smeltzly (1972-2000), Mike Roberts 

(2000-01) and Webb (2001-08). 

In the fall of 2008, Meyer was 

given the additional title of Dean of Wellness, as the operation of 

the Hollis Wellness Center as well as the the water ski program 

and campus intramurals also fall under his direction. 

Meyer, who has been at Florida Southern since 1998, had 

served as assistant athletics director for Webb since February of 

2006, in addition to maintaining his baseball coaching duties. In 

his position as assistant athletics director, he was responsible for 

acquiring major gifts for the athletic department that included funding 

and equipment for the athletics weight room and upgrading the 

baseball and men’s basketball locker rooms. He coordinated all of 

the athletic department’s fundraising efforts, coordinated athletic 

facilities and served as game administrator for various home events. 

He also served as Florida Southern’s representative on the Sunshine 

scholar-athlete program that models the highest standards of NCAA 

Division II athletics. 

As part of her quest for excellence, Dr. Kerr commissioned 

a master plan that outlines the College’s vision for the campus 

and includes numerous facility transformations. These include a 

soon-to-be completed residential life facility designed by worldrenowned 

architect Robert Stern; a state-of-the-art center for the 

study of languages and literatures; an Internet café in the library 

and an addition to the library; the expansion of wireless Internet 

access and campus-wide technology upgrades; renovations to the 

student dining facility and residence halls; as well as a restoration 

of our world renowned Frank Lloyd Wright campus. 

Prior to assuming the presidency at Florida Southern, Dr. Kerr 

was Vice President for Advancement at both Rollins College and 

the University of Richmond. She earned her bachelor’s degree 

from Mercer University and her master’s and doctoral degrees 

from the Florida State University. She has held a number of 

community volunteer leadership roles and currently serves on the 

boards of SunTrust Bank Central Florida, The Lakeland Chamber 

of Commerce, Habitat for Humanity, The Polk Museum of Art 

and the Polk Arts Alliance. She and her husband Dr. Roy Kerr 

have a thirteen-year-old son Eddie. Roy Kerr is the author of a 

recently-published book about baseball entitled “The Loving of 

the Game.” 

State Conference Marketing Committee. 

As baseball coach, Meyer spent six full seasons as head 

coach, keeping the Moccasin program among the elite in NCAA 

Division II. In 2005, he guided the Moccasins to their ninth NCAA 

Division II national title with a 51-11 record and was the American 

Baseball Coaches Association Division II Coach-of-the-Year. In 

addition to his national coaching honors from the ABCA, Meyer 

also was South Region, Sunshine State Conference and Florida 

Diamond Club (scouting organization) Coach-of-the-Year. 

His head coaching record at Florida Southern was 257-111-1, 

while his overall record as a head coach was 296-141-1. Thirtyfour 

Moccasin baseball players were drafted or signed professional 

contracts during Meyer’s tenure at FSC. 

Before officially assuming the reigns of head coach, Meyer 

had served for over three years as Florida Southern’s top assistant 

coach. He also was the program’s recruiting coordinator. 

Prior to joining the FSC coaching staff, Meyer spent five 

seasons at Valdosta State, working under the legendary head coach, 

Tommy Thomas. Before his stint at Valdosta State, Meyer was 

head baseball coach at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, where he 

coordinated the start of the school’s Division III baseball program 

in 1991. He served as a graduate assistant at Valdosta State from 

1988-90, while earning his M. Ed. in physical education. 

A four-year baseball letterman at the College of Wooster 

in Ohio, Meyer graduated in 1987 with a B.A. in speech 

communication. 

Meyer is married to the former Julie Newnum. The couple 

has three children, 20-year-old Ross, 18-year old Mitchell and 

17-year-old Megan.

Trey Heath is in his second season 

as Florida Southern’s men’s 

tennis coach. Last season he guided 

the Moccasins to a 17-9 dual 

match record that included 10 wins 

against nationally-ranked teams. 

The Moccasins were runners-up 

in the NCAA Southeast Regional, 

placed third in the Sunshine State 

Conference Tournament and were 

ranked 12th in the final ITA poll of 

the spring. The Moccasins won an 

ITA team academic award and had six ITA scholar-athletes, 

as well as two ITA All-Americans in Michael Knoedler and 

Roman Schirmaier. 

Heath came to Florida Southern after taking Webber 

International’s men’s tennis team to the NAIA National 

Tournament two straight years. He replaced Scott Linn, who 

resigned after three seasons to take an assistant coach’s position 

at the University of Indiana. 

Heath coached both the men’s and women’s tennis teams 

at Webber in his two seasons there. The Webber men were 

ranked 14th in the final 2007 NAIA poll, reaching the second 

round of the NAIA Tournament, and were ranked 13th in 

2006. The men’s team’s two-year dual match record under 

Heath was 28-13. He also had two NAIA Scholar-Athletes 

on his 2007 men’s team and three on his 2006 squad. 

A standout tennis player at Winter Haven High School, 

Heath won state championships in singles and doubles and 

received a tennis scholarship to Lees-McRae College in North 

Carolina. After one season there, he transferred to Webber 

to finish his collegiate playing career under his father, Bill 

Heath, who was Webber’s tennis coach at that time and who 

is now Webber’s athletics director. 

Following his graduation in 1994, Heath served as an 

assistant tennis coach under his father from 1995-99 and 

helped guide the men’s team to a fourth-place finish at the 

1999 NAIA Tournament. 

He left the coaching ranks in 1999 and was involved in 

private business and teaching until 2005, when he returned 

to Webber as head tennis coach. He received his bachelor’s 

degree in finance in 1994 from Webber and is nearing completion 

of his master’s degree in business administration. 

He is an accomplished motocross racer in his spare 

time. 

Heath and his wife, Michelle, have a six-year-old daughter, 

Brianna.

doubles team to give the Mocs a total of ten All-American 

certificates. The first All-American from Florida Southern was 

three-time honoree Alberto Bonfil, a four-year letterman from 

1996-90, who won 63 single matches during that span, the most 

for any Moccasin since men’s tennis was brought back as a sport 

at the college in 1995-96. The second was Marc Becker, who 

won 46 matches in his three-year career. In 2005, Gaston Verna 

became the third, finishing with a #16 national ranking. Milos 

Koprovica joined the list in 2006.

BEERMAN TENNIS CENTER 

The Moccasins play their home matches at the Beerman 

Tennis Center. The complex was named in honor of the Beerman 

family which has been synonymous with the growth of tennis in 

the Lakeland community. 

Dave Beerman, Sr. has been a driving force in the tennis scene 

in Lakeland, leading an effort to spread the good news of tennis to 

area youths. 

Through his early efforts of allowing Polk County teams the 

use of the first city courts, Beerman has helped tennis grow to the 

county-wide success it knows today. 

Beerman was an outstanding amateur tennis player at No. 1 

singles at East Nashville High School before moving on to play 

No. 1 singles for Tennessee Tech. 

Perhaps seeing tennis continue to grow is one of Beerman’s 

greatest joys and thanks to his guidance, the Moccasins can enjoy 

the Beerman Tennis Center and in turn, host some of the finest 

collegiate talent in the nation. 

The five varsity courts, located adjacent to the George W. 

Jenkins Field House, are named in honor of five outstanding tennis 

patrons: Jimmie Sikes, Bud Edsall, Scott Linder, Bill Lord and 

Richard Miller.
