Minnesota: statehood in 1858. UM: established in 1851. Big whoop. The Hawaiian sister campus of BYU was established in 1955 before Hawaii gained statehood in 1959, the main BYU campus and U of Utah were established in 1875 and 1850 respectively before Utah gained statehood in 1896, or even (in my home state of Washington) U-Dub 1861 before the Washington statehood in 1889.
