WO DAYS before the Fourth of July, 1862, in the midst of the Civil War, the Congress of the United States passed the Federal Land Act which made possible the creation of Montana State College. Advantage of this Act was taken by the people of Montana on February 16, 1893, when one hundred forty thousand acres of the public domain were set aside for the maintenance of the Greater University of Montana. Early in the spring of 1893 the State Board of Education held its first meeting in Bozeman. Nelson Story, Sr., a prominent cattle man of the Gallatin, gave the College forty acres of land overlooking the city of Bozeman as a building site. An adjoining one hundred sixty acres were donated, half by Gallatin County and half by the public-spirited citizens of Bozeman. An Executive Board was appointed and Luther Foster was made acting President. On April 17, 1893, in a frame building, formerly used as a Presbyterian Academy, the President, an assistant, and eight students registered in Business Economy, opened Montana College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. The next fall A. M. Ryan was made President and with six assistants began a College term. In the summer of 1894 the present extension building was built and the campus became more than an empty prairie. In June, 1894, James Reid was made President of the institution and funds were provided for the erection of new buildings of which Main Hall was the first to be completed.
