Florida State University’s Department of Geography has been a long-standing institution at FSU, existing as a department since 1946 with roots going even further back. FSU was established in 1851, then called Seminary West of the Suwannee River. After the Civil War, the institution taught primary and secondary schoolers, and classes on descriptive geography and physical geography were made available in 1887. Seminary West became Florida State College in 1901, and geography was taught at the college level in the 1903-1904 school year. The Department of History and Geography at Florida State College for Women was officially established in 1924.
