Editor: During my 28 years as director of Institutional Development I had the privilege of assisting in the framing of what is now the Georgia Southern University Foundation. This took place in the early 60s under the keen leadership of F. Everett Williams, local pharmacist and for many years President of the Sea Island Bank. Additionally, in 1973 it was during a foundation executive committee meeting held in President Pope Duncan's office as we reviewed where the foundation was and where it needed to go, that I witnessed Charlie Robbins offering causally, "Why don't we do a drive in one day..." The rest is history.
