Stephanie, The Graduate

After many years, we began our adventure to Georgia for a very proud moment, Stephanie graduation from the University of Georgia. Just a few facts about UGA.

The University of Georgia, founded in 1785, and commonly referred to as UGA or simply Georgia, is an American land-grant university and sea grant research university. Its primary campus is located on a 759-acre (3.07 km2) campus in Athens, GeorgiaUSA.

Founded in 1785 as the United States' first state-chartered university, it is the oldest and largest of Georgia's institutions of higher learning and along with the College of William and Mary and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill claims the title of the oldest public university in the United States.[10] The university's historic North Campus is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as a designated historic district.[11]

The Uga mascot line started in 1956 when Seiler brought a bulldog that was given to him as a wedding present to Georgia's first home game of the season. Afterwards, head coach Wally Butts asked his permission to use the dog as Georgia's mascot, and around the same time a college friend, Billy Young, suggested that he name it Uga, a play on the common abbreviation of the University of Georgia, UGA.[2] Since then, every Uga has been owned by and lived with the Seiler family in Savannah, Georgia.
