The school which was to become Georgia Southern University was founded as a district agricultural school named First District A&M in 1906 as one of several agricultural and mechanical trades schools chartered by the Georgia General Assembly, the state legislature. During the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s the school expanded, offering a richer curriculum with an emphasis on education and changed its name for the first time to Georgia Normal School. It progressed from a two-year to a four-year teacher's college called South Georgia Teacher's College during those years. In 1959, the school became known as Georgia Southern College when it became a senior college within the University System of Georgia followed by receiving university status in 1990. In April 2006, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching officially announced that Georgia Southern changed classifications from its previous Masters I designation to the National Doctoral/Research University level. Despite this classification change, the University System of Georgia will continue to consider Georgia Southern a regional university for its organizational purposes and budget/tuition calculations. On October 30, 2006, Georgia Southern University was visited by President George W. Bush, marking the first time that a current President has visited the campus. The presidential visit was a first for Statesboro, Georgia as well. [1]
