  University of Arkansas System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, one key division of the system prefers the title "University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture" (without "System"), even though it is a unit of the system with official ties to the Monticello and Pine Bluff campuses as well as Fayetteville.
Though the University of Arkansas as a system could be said to date from the founding of UAPB (1873) or UAMS' joining the system (1911), it was not commonly referred to as a system until after the addition of UALR (1969) and UAM (1971) and the return of UAPB (1972).
In 1975, a University of Arkansas Board of Trustees policy officially adopted "University of Arkansas System" as an alternative name for the system overall, along with the present names of the campuses; it has been amended over the years as other campuses were added.
