Kansas State University was founded on February 16, 1863.Kansas State University was founded on February 16, 1863 as the first land-grant university in America established under provisions of the federal Morrill Act of July 2, 1862, and is assigned missions by certain federal laws. The Morrill Act, which established the land-grant institutions, sets forth these educational objectives: The leading objective shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts in order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions in life. The basic objectives of Kansas State University, as set forth in laws establishing the University and in policies adopted by its governing board, are threefold: through resident instruction to make available to all qualified youth, irrespective of their financial circumstances, liberal and professional education at both the undergraduate and the graduate levels; through programs of basic and applied research to facilitate the increase and practical application of knowledge; and through programs of extension and continuing education, to diffuse knowledge among the people of the state. Current objectives are: to provide full and efficient counseling and guidance to students at the University; to prepare students for an occupation or a profession which includes an organized body of information and theory so they may realize their creative potential; to provide all students with an opportunity to gain the knowledge and abilities members of a democratic society need, whatever occupation or profession they expect to enter; to stimulate the faculty and students to extend the boundaries of knowledge through critical and creative thinking and experimentation; and to provide the facilities for extending education outside the boundaries of the campus to the members of the community the institution serves. On September 19, 1958, the Kansas Board of Regents defined the mission of Kansas State University as follows: "The mission shall be the same as that of the University of Kansas except that it shall emphasize the study of basic and applied sciences including agriculture, engineering, home economics, and veterinary medicine. It is authorized to grant degrees to and including the doctors degree

By act of the legislature of 1923, approved by the governor on February 20, the name of the Kansas State Normal School was changed to Kansas State Teachers College of Emporia. The 1974 legislature changed the name of the college to Emporia Kansas State College effective July 1, 1974. The name was changed again in 1977 to Emporia State University. The general mission of the University is to serve the people of Kansas and the society beyond, by conducting programs of study and research which will stimulate and assist students to fulfill to a significant degree their potentialities as individual human beings and to prepare them to participate effectively in a rapidly-changing complex society. The University strives continually to maintain a learning environment conducive to personal growth. The major functions of the University are: 1. The providing of pre-service and in-service programs of study for teachers and other workers in the elementary and secondary public schools of Kansas. 2. The providing of regional higher education programs of study (liberal arts, pre-business, and pre-professional) for the population of the very limited area. This function should not be expanded except where this will mean strengthening of the general education provided teachers. 3. Providing training in librarianship to meet the shortage of school and public librarians in Kansas. 4. Providing leadership in making the vast rural educational resources of Kansas available to the nation and world through the Rural Service Department of the National Education Association, the Agency for International Development of the U. S. State Department and other agencies. 5. The obtaining of special grants from the National Science Foundation making possible science teacher institutes. This is of special concern during this period of need of more science manpower. 6. Continuing to place emphasis on providing training for teachers for mentally retarded children. Attention will be directed toward the education of the talented and gifted as well. A major aim of the University is the preparation of teachers for Kansas schools. The University retains four major divisions: Academic Affairs, Development & University Relations, Fiscal Affairs, and Student Affairs & Support Services

Fort Hays Kansas State College was founded in 1902 as the Western Branch of the Kansas Normal School.
After a series of changes, the school was renamed Fort Hays Kansas State College in 1931.
Fort Hays Kansas State College became Fort Hays State University in 1977.
Collection contains reports for both Fort Hays Kansas State College and Fort Hays State University.Fort Hays State University was created for the purpose of providing educational opportunities to the people of western Kansas and to satisfy a need felt by the early settlers for such facilities in the new region. In March, 1900, Congress passed legislation granting to the state of Kansas the 7,600 acre Fort Hays Military Reservation which was abandoned in 1889 for the purpose of establishing an Experiment Station of the Kansas State Agricultural College, a western branch of the State Normal School, and a public park. This grant was accepted by the Kansas legislature in 1901. On June 23, 1902, the college opened and for two years was known as the Western Branch of the Kansas Normal School of Emporia. During its history in educational service, the college has had several changes in its name. In 1914, the Hays Normal was made independent of the Emporia Normal School and it became Fort Hays Kansas State Normal School. In 1923, the name of the college was changed to Kansas State Teachers College of Hays. In 1931, the legislature authorized the change of name to Fort Hays Kansas State College. In 1977, the name of the College was changed to Fort Hays State University. The college was initially established as a teacher-preparing institution of higher learning. The college has been, at different times, a teacher's college, a normal school, and finally a liberal arts college offering two years of graduate work above the baccalaureate degree. As a liberal arts institution, the college prepares students in many other professional fields. All programs of study in the college are fully accredited. This college seeks to provide opportunities for students to prepare themselves for constructive and responsible citizenship in a democratic society by offering a program which encourages the student to develop the ability to communicate effectively, appreciate the nature and significance of science, understand himself, comprehend our cultural inheritance, develop a sense of political and social responsibility and prepare himself for a vocation or for further study. The institution attempts to achieve these goals through its curricula, activities, and services
