Answer:
Paragraph 1, in order: 1784, 1785, 1786, Abraham Baldwin, Yale, educated
Paragraph 2, in order: 1801, Oconee River, Josaiah Meigs, 10,000, 35,000
Explanation:
In 1784, not long after the end of the Revolutionary War, the Georgia General Assembly authorized the use of 40,000 acres to be used for a school of higher learning. Then, in January of 1785, the General Assembly created the University of Georgia. In February of 1786, the first President of the University of Georgia was chosen: Abraham Baldwin. He was Connecticut-born and Yale-educated, and immediately upon taking the job he wrote the charter that created the university. He believed that an educated population was crucial for the state, and he wanted the school to be one that would offer higher education to ALL Georgians, not just the wealthy elite.
Even though the University of Georgia was authorized in 1786, it really did not physically exist until 1801. That was the year that 633 acres close to the Oconee River was donated to the state to be used for the actual site of the school. In September of that year, Josiah Meigs, also a graduate of Yale, was appointed President and taught the first university class. In 1804 the University graduated its first class and the following year the first permanent building was erected on campus. Today there are nearly 400 buildings on the UGA campus. It employs almost 10,000 people and has roughly 35,000 students.
