Emory University was founded in 1836 in Oxford, Georgia, by a group of Methodists and named for Methodist bishop John Emory. A land grant from Asa Candler in 1915, then president of Coca-Cola, allowed the university to move to Atlanta and become rechartered as Emory University. Today the private research university is located in the Druid Hills neighborhood of Dekalb County, in metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. - Local Identifier:
