The Nebraska State College System is the governing body for Nebraska's three public colleges (Chadron, Peru, and Wayne) that are not part of the University of Nebraska System. It is headquartered in Lincoln, Nebraska. Chadron, Peru, and Wayne, along with the System Office and the Board of Trustees constitute the Nebraska State College System.[1]

History

[edit]

The Nebraska State College System was originally formed in 1867 as the Nebraska State Normal School with the founding of Peru State Normal School in Peru, Nebraska. The system was formed by the Nebraska State Legislature following Nebraska's admission to the Union.[2] Kearney State Normal School was formed in 1905 as a part of the normal school system.[3] In 1910, the Nebraska Normal College was transferred into the system and was re-branded to the Wayne State Normal School.[4] Chadron State Normal School was added to the system in 1911.[5]

In 1921, the Nebraska State Legislature passed a law making all state-funded normal schools colleges.[6] In 1963, the legislature passed another law requiring all colleges to re-brand to state colleges.[7] Additionally, the system re-branded to the Nebraska State College System. In 1990, Kearney State College left the Nebraska State College System and joined the University of Nebraska system, re-branding to the University of Nebraska at Kearney.[8]
