View source for Land grant university

The term used to identify a public university in each state that was originally established as a [[land grant college of agriculture]] pursuant to the [[Morrill Act of 1862]]. In most states the original agricultural colleges grew over time into full-fledged public universities by adding other colleges (e.g., arts and sciences, medicine, law, etc.); in states where a public university existed prior to 1862, the first [[Morrill Act]] resulted in a college of agriculture being added to the university. [[USDA]] funds go only to the original land grant colleges of agriculture within the so-called land grant universities.
