The History and Evolution of 在线博彩
从1906年一所不起眼的农业机械在线博彩成为一所一流的大学, 在线博彩有着丰富的知识和成长的历史.
卡罗尔顿的第四区农业和机械学校响应13-21岁的“农村青年更现实的教育计划”的呼吁而开放. 随着前邦纳种植园的选址被选为地点,1908年有110名学生入学. 随着时代的变化,乔治亚州和整个国家的教育重点也发生了变化. By 1933, seven of the A&M所学校放弃了他们的使命,并决定废除剩下的a&M schools.
Despite the change, 第四区农业和机械学校在那年晚些时候被选为西佐治亚学院, a two-year institution of higher learning. 1957年,西乔治亚成为一所四年制大学,这种演变仍在继续. At that time, 589 students were enrolled. By 1971, enrollment had increased to over 6,000 students. 在线博彩获得大学资格仅仅七年后,秋季入学人数就突破了1万人.
