Joint curriculum

Sometimes a research center just grows until they're offering their own courses and tuition.

Like Auburn has fisheries and labs in Dauphin Island. If enough resources are diverted there for whatever reason, it becomes more of a standalone institution. May even start offering courses, but it's still part of Auburn.

The medical school at UAB is actually split between UA, UAB, and UAH.

Why do some states decide to go that route and others don't?

For example in Georgia, there is no UG in Athens and a UGA in Atlanta and UGS in Savannah. There's no UF in Gainesville and UFT in Tampa. All the schools are separate. Just curious as why certain states go this route and others don't.

Did schools like UGA and UF not have research centers like the other states? And if they did, when did they separate?
