HISTORICAL MARKER COMMEMORATING THE FOUNDING OF FRANKLIN COI.LECK M ' nil I NIVERSITY. S. WALTER MARTIN Dean Founded in 1801 as an answer to the need for liberal education for Georgians, the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences is the oldest part of the Uni- versity. The object of the College is to give the stu- dent an opportunity to concentrate in certain fields of study which might be helpful in laying a foun- dation for professional pursuits. Thus it fulfills the precepts of a liberal education in developing the individual as a human being first, and then giving him a background that should enable him to achieve a high standard of living and a safe economic position. 24

The farmer boys, as they are sometimes called, really learn more than just farming at Georgia. They pursue an extensive course which not only indoctrinates them in the latest agricultural meth- ods in their particular fields, but with the latest methods in all fields of agriculture. Besides agricul- ture, courses in English, math, public speaking, gov- ernment, and many other areas of study are required, thus giving a well-rounded and sound education which will not only prepare them for their chosen careers, but will make them informed, valuable citi- zens. The University of Georgia is a member of the American Association of Land Grant Colleges ap- proved by the Federal Government to give instruc- tion in agriculture and related fields. The College of Agriculture is an integral part of this program, providing a coordinated program of research, col- lege training, and extension services in thirteen major fields. In the well-equipped, modern laboratories of the Ag College, students learn by doing. The University maintains a large tract of land by the South Campus where students can .see at fir.st hand the results of modern technology. C. C.

2 2 = ? Athens, U. S. A. , a major fashion revue staged by the fashion promotion class of the retailing de- partment, was an example of the practical side of the College of Business Administration. It is in projects such as these that the students encounter and cope with the actual problems they would find in the business world. Many courses of this nature are included in the college curriculum, thus carrying out its purpose of providing a foundation of general culture, broadening the viewpoint, and developing sound thinking by use of theory and practice. The College of Business Administration was au- thorized in 1912 by the Board of Trustees as the School of Commerce. The curriculum is not re- stricted to purely economics and business courses, and upon completion of the four-year course, the degree of Bachelor of Business Administration is awarded. JAMES E.
