Paula Wallace, May L. Poetter and Paul E. Poetter to provide college degree programs not<br />
previously available in southeast Georgia and to create a specialized professional art college to<br />
attract students from throughout the United States and abroad. The curriculum was established<br />

come from the government, the university, or a private organization.<br />
