Florida Historical Quarterly. A Lecturer of History, Dr. Clark's concentration is on Florida history, the American South, and presidential history. "To Attract, Retain and Grow" focuses on the history of the Florida High Tech Corridor Council (FHTCC), which an economic development initiative whose mission is to foster the high technology industry in Florida's High Tech Corridor, spanning 23 counties with rich industries in aerospace engineering, modeling and simulation, optics and photonics, digital media, and medical technologies. The council consists of the UCF in Orlando, the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa, and the University of Florida (UF) in Gainesville. In 1966, the Florida Legislature passed an act founding the FHTCC to support the 21-county service areas of UCF and USF. Its original mission was to expand research and educational partnerships in order to retain the Cirent Semiconductor water fabrication facility located in Orlando, Florida. In 1997, the development of all technology industries across Central Florida was added to the FHTCC's mission. UF joined the partnership in 2005.]]> To Attract, Retain and Grow: The History of the Florida High Tech Corridor Council."]]> Florida High Tech Corridor Council]]> General Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> Florida High Tech Corridor Council.]]> Florida High Tech Corridor Council and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]> The Florida Historical Quarterly on the legislative fight for the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) and the Florida Legislature in the 1970s, titled "Religion and Women's Rights in Florida: An Examination of the Equal Rights Amendment Legislative Debates, 1972-1982."]]> The Florida Historical Quarterly, Florida Historical Society, Cocoa, Florida.]]> The Florida Historical Quarterly]]> Florida Historical Society]]> University of Central Florida, Department of History]]> The Florida Historical Quarterly, Florida Historical Society, Cocoa, Florida.]]> Florida Historical Quarterly Podcast Collection, RICHES of Central Florida.]]> QuickTime.]]> The Florida Historical Quarterly.]]> Florida Historical Society and is provided here by RICHES of Central Florida for educational purposes only.]]>
