29 First Morrill Act Each state who accepts this act agrees to utilize funds to the endowment, support and maintenance of a least one college where the leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts, in such manner as the legislatures of the States may respectively prescribe, in order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life.

35 Land Grant Land in Iowa 2/3rds of land granted was in Kossuth, Palo Alto and Emmet Counties

36 Implementing the Act Federal red tape delayed final certification until January 1864 Never a breath of scandal!

37 1864 Iowa General Assembly Oops! An Obstacle University of Iowa proposes dividing land grant funds with agriculture professors at both schools University trustee: Make Agriculture College division of University
