Background: The University of Nevada at Reno
(UNR) is a university that is located in Reno, Nevada and
is known for its programs in agricultural research, animal
biotechnology, and mining-related natural sciences. It was
originally founded in Elko, Nevada in 1874 as a small, makeshift
prep school that really could not be considered a true university.
In 1887, the fledgling institution was moved, brick by brick,
from Elko to its current home in Reno. After several decades
of struggling to implement requirements of federal Morrill
land-grant legislation, the university made large strides
toward becoming the modern institution it is today with the
opening of the Desert Research Institute in 1960 and a medical
school in 1967. The University of Nevada, Reno remained the
only four-year academic institution in the state of Nevada
until 1965, when the current-day University of Nevada, Las
Vegas attained university status as Nevada Southern University.

School of Earth Sciences and Engineering), created by Mount
