Shrewsbury didn't set out to make history when she entered North Georgia, but
she has become the first female leader of school's Corps of Cadets. North
Georgia has a long history of providing education and leadership opportunities
to women. When the school was founded in 1873, it was the state's first public
coeducational institution. Women were part of North Georgia's first graduating
class in 1878. And, in 1973, North Georgia became the nation's first senior
military college to admit women as part of the Corps of Cadets.
