Earle Bowden]], helped establish the [[Seville Square Historic District]] in Pensacola. His efforts as a member of the Florida Board of Regents led to the establishment of the [[University of West Florida]], which awarded him an honorary doctorate. He served on the President’s Council on Historic Preservation, the [[Historic Pensacola Preservation Board]] and the Florida American Revolution Bicentennial Commission.
Dodson also promoted the reconstruction of the [[Tivoli High House]] on [[Zaragoza Street]]. A "Great Floridian" plaque is located at the building in his honor.
