Abstract

This interview was conducted for the as part of the Winthrop History Project spearheaded by Winthrop President Emeritus Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio and Rebecca Masters to “document the 24-year path of the original Winthrop College to becoming Winthrop University.” This effort was to produce a history of the institution and Dr. DiGiorgio’s tenure as president as a supplement to Dr. Ross Webb’s history of Winthrop (The Torch is Passed) that covered Winthrop history up to Dr. DiGiorgio becoming president. A key aspect of the project was a series of audio-taped interviews conducted with various members of the extended Winthrop community who participated in or helped guide the advancement of Winthrop over these years. That way, the Winthrop story will be told in an array of participants’ own words, own voices and from their own perspectives.

This interview is with Dalton B. Floyd, Jr. who was a longtime member of the Winthrop Board of Trustees. He served on the board for many years and was also Chairman of the Winthrop Board of Trustees for a number of years. He also served on the Commission on Higher Education and as Chairman of the Commission before he served on Winthrop’s Board. In this interview he discusses his involvement with Winthrop with a focus on his relationship working with Winthrop President, Dr. Anthony DiGiorgio.
