Is this the kind of grammatical construct you learn at an old school or a newer one?

Also I’m not giving credit for other schools that “spun off” from completely other institutions

It's also literally ranked

Something like that but my transcripts might indicate I was anywhere but class

You count this but not

The Georgia General Assembly approved Baldwin's charter on January 27, 1785,[14]
Or even
quote:
The modern University of Florida traces its origins to 1853, when the East Florida Seminary, the oldest of its four predecessor institutions, was founded in 1853 as the East Florida Seminary in Ocala, Florida.[21]
Not very consistent.

It does look like I made an error
So would Tennessee be 1807? That seems to make the most sense

Man, my transcripts from JUCO proceeding through university look like the economy through Biden's first year.
You can point out the exact spot where I discovered nightly drink specials.

There was no school named University of Tennessee in 1807.
It was called East Tennessee College.
University of Tennessee was established in 1879.
Facts!

University of Tennessee was not a spin off it’s on the same location, it was renamed.
The 1st graduating class was in 1796.
