In 1906, the YMCA program was restructured into Association Institute and then it was reorganized as Fenn College in 1929. The historic Fenn Tower is now student housing. Back then Fenn College was known as the “Campus in the Clouds.”http://www.csuohio.edu/aboutcsu/history/

The Cleveland Law School was founded in 1897 and was the first law school in Ohio that held classes in the evenings. It was also one of the first schools to admit minorities and women. In 1916, another evening law school, John Marshall School of Law was founded. The two schools merged in 1946 and became the Cleveland-Marshall School of Law. In 1969, Cleveland-Marshall became part of Cleveland State University. http://www.csuohio.edu/aboutcsu/history/
