What is Tower Yearbook

The University of Florida’s first yearbook, the Seminole, first appeared in 1910. The Seminole, was named because the staff felt that it was an accurate reflection of Florida’s past and pre-dated the Florida State University’s selection of that same name for their mascot. The Seminole was published 1910-1973. In 1983, after a 10-year hiatus the University of Florida reestablished the yearbook program. After wrestling through many obstacles, staff recruitment, book sales and promotion a new yearbook emerged. Tower was the name given to the new yearbook for the landmark Century Tower in the middle of campus. In 2007, Tower will produce its 25th Edition.

Tower yearbook covers, every single sport, Greek organization, as many Non-Greek organizations as we can, and events to the best of the staff’s ability. We are a fall-delivery book, meaning our coverage runs from mid-June to spring graduation and the yearbook is mailed out in August. For example, the 2007 yearbook covers from June 2006- May 2007.
