On February 15, 1865, eighteen anxious students gathered on the second floor of a stone building belonging to School District No. 1 of Lyon County to begin their quest for learning at the Kansas State Normal School. It was less than two years after Gov. Thomas Carney signed the bill creating what has become one of the most renowned teacher education universities in the nation. Despite economic setbacks and the loss of the main building to fire in the 1870s, the normal school attracted students from every county within the state. By the end of 1892, the board of regents reported that the Kansas State Normal School was the largest in the nation. In 1923, the school's name was changed to Kansas State Teachers College, recognizing its importance in teacher education. Today, Emporia State University continues to offer outstanding academic programs and an energetic campus environment that has been changing lives since that day in 1865.

Excerpt from The Kansas State Normal School, Emporia, Kansas, Vol. 5: Year-Book Number, June, 1906 Some facts-for the period covered in this year-book should be mentioned in its introduction to throw light on what follows. The branch normal schools at Hays and Pittsburg, which have been represented more or less in recent year-books, are not included in this. The sugges tion has sometimes been made that since the three schools are controlled by the same Board of Regents and have the same President they might present their printed matter in a joint volume. Force is given to this suggestion by the fact that the branch schools print, as a large part of the outline of their course of study, work prepared for the curriculum of the main school. But even the short course leading to a one-year certificate has differentiated to some extent in the three schools, and the differences in the three year courses leading to the three-year state certificate are still more marked. The main school is able to offer, be cause of the greater number of subjects taught there, a wider range of electives for its three-year course; and, as it does not give graduation with its three-year state certificate.
