Alumns remember great decades, great professors

The Florida State Times' contest for essays by alumni attracted dozens of entries. Most were fun to read, but we promised six winners, so here they are, three in the nostalgia category and three profiles.

The first-place essays are printed this month. The next two will be published in August and the last two in September.
