  • History

    In 1867, the foundation for Chicago State was a teacher training school known as the Cook County Normal School that had 62 students. In 1897, the Chicago Board of Education acquired the school and renamed it the Chicago Normal School. In 1913, it became Chicago Normal College and still later Chicago Teachers College. It was named Chicago State University in 1971.

    Today, the university is a fully accredited public, urban institution located on 161 acres in a residential community on the southside of Chicago.Chicago State: History
