Biographical / Historical

The University was established in 1873 as the Southeast Missouri Normal School. By legislative enactment in 1919, the institution became "Southeast Missouri State Teachers' College" and was authorized to grant degrees. The name "Southeast Missouri State College" was adopted on September 21, 1946, by permission of the Missouri General Assembly. The changing curricula and educational mission of the school were reflected in the latest modification on August 24, 1972, when the Board of Regents, acting under authority from the Missouri Legislature, approved the name "Southeast Missouri State University."
