History

{{Main|History of Georgia Regents University}}

When it first formed, Augusta College offered degrees in science and another in the arts, providing the foundation for what eventually became the College of Arts and Sciences within the university.{{cite web|title=Timeline|url=http://www.aug.edu/timeline.php|publisher=Augusta State University|accessdate=19 March 2014|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131227044230/http://www.aug.edu/timeline.php|archivedate=27 December 2013}}

The college is now named after Robert B. Pamplin, Sr.'s wife Katherine, who graduated from Augusta College.{{cite news|last=Overstreet|first=Johnathan|url=http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/2009/07/01/met_529453.shtml|accessdate=18 March 2014|newspaper=The Augusta Chronicle|date=1 July 2009|title=Wayback Machine has not archived that URL.|archive-date=18 March 2014|archive-url=https://archive.today/20140318165552/http://chronicle.augusta.com/stories/2009/07/01/met_529453.shtml|url-status=dead}} Originally, it was called the Katherine Reese Pamplin College of Arts and Sciences, but split in the summer of 2012 into two parts so the Deans could have a narrower focus. The College of Science and Mathematics sprung from the division, with the Pamplin College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences stemming from everything else.{{cite news|last=McManus|first=Tracey|title=Augusta State University's largest college to split|url=http://chronicle.augusta.com/news/education/2012-05-31/augusta-state-universitys-largest-college-split-july-1|accessdate=18 March 2014|newspaper=The Augusta Chronicle|date=31 May 2012}}
