Historical Note
The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire opened its doors in the fall of 1916 as the Eau Claire State Normal School.

With a student body of 159 and a faculty of 20, the school offered one- and two-year elementary and three-year secondary teachers' courses, and a principal's course.

Harvey A. Schofield was the first president of the new school, and his leadership saw it through the first 25 critical years of its existence.
