The University of Northern Colorado began in 1889 as the Colorado State Normal School; an institution dedicated to training the state�s teachers. Over the next century the institution grew from a relatively small normal school into an acclaimed state university with several nationally recognized graduate and undergraduate programs. During this period of transformation; the Greeley school experienced several name changes. It was renamed the State Teachers College of Colorado in 1911; followed by the Colorado State College of Education in 1935; then simply the Colorado State College in 1957; and finally; the University of Northern Colorado (UNC) in 1970; in recognition of the institution�s broadened mission. UNC�s first 100 years saw dramatic changes to the physical and academic environments on campus; including advancements in the fields of education; health; music; theater arts; and human sciences.
