'She says, 'Well, before we depart, we'd like to offer this building to you and Sylvia to have your name on it,'' he said in a recent interview. 'And then, she mentioned The Varsity.' The Varsity was Herb Fisher's first business, a Princess Street drug store and soda fountain that served as the make-do student union for nearby New Hanover High School and Wilmington College in the 1950s and '60s. Those fond days would be preserved forever with the dedication of the new building."
