Florida State University is a public, fully accredited, coeducational institution, and one of 11 institutions of Florida's State University System, which is directed by the Florida Board of Governors. Located in Tallahassee, Florida's capital city, the university affords students and faculty opportunities for interaction with state and federal agencies for internships, research and part-time employment, as well as numerous social, cultural, and recreational activities. Florida State was established as the Seminary West of the Suwannee by an act of the Florida Legislature in 1851. The institution first offered instruction at the postsecondary level in 1857 and is the longest continuous site of higher education in Florida. In 1905, the Buckman Act reorganized higher education in the state and designated the Tallahassee school as the Florida Female College. In 1909, it was renamed Florida State College for Women. In 1935 Florida State University, at that time Florida State College for Women, was awarded the first chapter of Phi Beta Kappa in Florida and is among the ten percent of American universities to have earned a chapter of the national academic honor society. In 1947, the school returned to coeducational status, and the name was changed to Florida State University. Florida State University is one of two Florida public universities to immediately qualify as a "preeminent university" by law under Florida Senate Bill 1076. The university's main campus encompasses 445.7 acres in Tallahassee, Leon County; the Panama City Campus has 25.6 acres in Panama City, Bay County.
