The Daily What

Let's not forget that Jim was an actor who played a guy rejected by FSU. In fact, he did attend FSU for a while, and I believe he transfered to UCLA film school. I believe he dropped out, to pursue other passions. It's a shame he never amounted to much...

He attended FSU for one semester. He had an apartment on College Avenue near the current Potbelly's bar and grill.

Those students exiting the classroom were coming out of the old Florida State University research and developmental high school. The medical school sits there now and the school was relocated to South Wood.

I love the reference to 'gates' at the end since there haven't been gates there since before the 1940's.
