More on The University of Vermont
Description from Wikipedia:
The University of Vermont is a national public research university and the state of Vermont's land-grant university. Known to many as "UVM," an abbreviation of its Latin name Universitas Viridis Montis, the university has also been named a Public Ivy. UVM serves students from across the United States and more than 30 other countries.
The university's 451 acre campus is located in Burlington, Vermont. Features of the UVM campus include the historic University Green district; the Dudley H. Davis Center, the first student center in the nation to receive U.S. Green Building Council LEED Gold certificaton; the Robert Hull Fleming Museum; and the Gutterson/Patrick athletic complex, home to UVM's Division I athletic teams and extensive recreational sports programs. The largest hospital complex in Vermont, Fletcher Allen Health Care, has its primary facility adjacent to the UVM campus and is affiliated with the UVM College of Medicine. ==History==
The University of Vermont was chartered as a private university in 1791, the same year Vermont became the 14th state in the union. In 1865, the university merged with Vermont Agricultural College (chartered November 22, 1864, after the passage of the Morrill Land-Grant Colleges Act), emerging as the University of Vermont and State Agricultural College. Today, the university blends the traditions of both a private and public university. UVM draws 17 percent of its general fund (approximately 10 percent of its current operating budget) from the state and Vermont residents make up 35 percent of enrollment; 65 percent of students come from other states and countries.
