The Pennsylvania State Normal School History HIS school has a reat purpose, and its vast niachiiiery aiu3 e(|iiipineiit is (Hrected toward the tulfilhnent of this ])iirpose - -to develop character, to promote intelli 4ence and respect for honest labor among young people; to conserve worthy social institutions: and to render a real service to the state. The plan of this institution was conceived in the early sixties, hut the school was not opened until 187.). Its tirst principal was Dr. K. B. Fairfield, who afterwards hecamc the first Chancellor of the Univer- sity of Nebraska. The first building was one of the finest, largest and best-planned structures devoted to normal school education in the United States, and still stands, a monuinent to its founders. Since then several large annexes to this building have been constructed, together with a dormitory for men students, a model school, and reci- taiion hall. During the past year there has been erected, just across the P. K. H.. one of the best power plants owned by a school, and at the present time Dr. Anient is ])lanning for a fine, large gymnasium, to be erected directly west of Clark Hall. Indiana has grown steadily since the time of its founding, and with every indication for a still larger gi-owth, bids fair to some day stand alone as a school of its kind. 22
