<p>Wrong. The land grant schools weren’t founded later in most cases, in fact both were founded at the same time. Oftentimes U of _____ has its roots in liberal arts emphasis, whereas ______ State University has its emphasis in math-heavy fields, such as science, engineering, architecture, agriculture, and so on. That doesn’t mean that U of ____ is flagship while _____ State University is not. Usually states will officially designate which are the flagship universities, and some will even divide their higher ed system up into separate systems. Texas has the UT system, where Austin is the flagship, and the A&M system, where College Station is the flagship. We all know however that the distinctions between land grant publics and the ones that started out with liberal arts emphasis have been blurred and in some states, _____ State is the premier public university, while in others U of _____ is the premier school. For example, in Michigan, California, Washington, and most states, U of ______ is the premier school. However the land grant schools are the premier universities in South Carolina (Clemson), Georgia (GT), Louisiana (LSU), Oklahoma (OSU), Indiana (Purdue), Pennsylvania (PSU), Wisconsin (UW), Ohio (OSU), and on and on… and EVEN New York, where Cornell is one of two private land grant universities.</p>
