Why did the state of Alabama wait until 1872 to take advantage of the morrill act?

Alabama delayed taking advantage of the Morrill Act until 1872 primarily due to the social and economic turmoil following the Civil War, which hindered the state's ability to focus on educational initiatives. The act, which provided federal land to establish colleges focused on agriculture and the mechanical arts, required a stable government and infrastructure to implement effectively. Additionally, the state faced significant political challenges during Reconstruction that complicated the establishment of new institutions. By 1872, conditions had improved enough for Alabama to move forward with its land-grant college, ultimately leading to the creation of Auburn University.
