よくある質問
George Mason University began in 1957 as a small branch of the University of Virginia known as University College. Originally located in a renovated elementary school in Bailey's Crossroads, the school started with just seventeen freshmen in a single building. This humble beginning as a commuter branch served as the foundation for what would eventually transform into the largest public research university in the state of Virginia.
The university officially gained its independence on April 7, 1972. This pivotal moment occurred when a group from George Mason College traveled to Richmond to meet with Governor A. Linwood Holton Jr. By signing Bill H 210, the Governor formally cut the ties between the college and the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, establishing George Mason University as a fully independent entity.
Governor A. Linwood Holton Jr. was instrumental in the university's growth by signing the legislation that granted the school its independence. On April 7, 1972, he signed Bill H 210, which transitioned the school from a satellite campus of the University of Virginia into a standalone institution. This act served as a major catalyst for the university's future achievements, including its evolution into a global research player.
Bill H 210 was the specific piece of legislation that legally established George Mason University as an independent institution. Before this bill was signed into law by Governor A. Linwood Holton Jr., the school operated as a branch of the University of Virginia. The passage of this bill allowed the university to move beyond its status as a commuter branch and pursue its own path toward becoming a major public research university.
