The Territory was conventionally split by the Appalachicola or later the Suwannee rivers into East and West areas. Florida State University is traceable to a plan set by the 1823 U.S. Congress to create a system of higher education. The 1838 Florida Constitution codified the basic system by providing for land allocated for the schools. In 1845 Florida became the 27th State of the United States, which permitted the resources and intent of the 1823 Congress regarding education in Florida to be implemented. In 1851 the Florida Legislature voted to establish two seminaries of higher education on opposite sides of the Suwannee River. Francis W. Eppes and other city leaders established an all-male academy called the Florida Institute in Tallahassee as a legislative inducement to locate the West Florida Seminary in Tallahassee.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=State Library and Archives of Florida – Florida Photographic Collection'' )〕 The East Florida Seminary opened in Ocala in 1853, closed in 1861, and reopened in Gainesville in 1866.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Book Review: Gone with the Hickory Stick: School Days in Marion County 1845–1960, p.122, The Florida Historical Quarterly – Volume LV, Number 3 January 1977 )〕 The East Florida Seminary is the institution to which the modern University of Florida traces its foundation.〔 In 1856, the land and buildings in an area formerly known as Gallows Hill, site of public executions in early Tallahassee,〔 where the Florida Institute was built, was accepted as the site of the state seminary for male students. Two years later the institution absorbed the Tallahassee Female Academy founded in 1843 as the Misses Bates School and became coeducational.〔"Tallahassee Female Academy circa 187-. Archives metadata: A female academy. West Florida Seminary building on Park Avenue between Duval and Bronough Streets, Tallahassee, Florida" (【引用サイトリンク】 title=State Library and Archives of Florida – Florida Photographic Collection )〕 The West Florida Seminary stood near the front of the Westcott Building on the existing FSU campus, making this site the oldest continually used location of higher learning in Florida.〔"No. 3 was the seminary.
