The History or Mansrield In the year 1854 Joseph Hoard, prominent citizen of the little village of Mansfield, began the project of establishing an institution ol higher learning to serve North-Central Penn- sylvania. On January 7, 1857, the Mansfield Classical Seminarv opened its doors to one hundred and five students. Six davs after the second term of the seminary began, the building burned to the ground. Undaunted by the disaster, the courageous citizens of Mans- field assembled and pledged $4000 for the erection of a new building while the walls of the old were still falling. The seminarv reopened in December, 1861; and one year later it became the third State Normal School of Pennsylvania. During its 89 years as a state institution, Mansfield has grown far beyond the dreams of those enterprising pioneers who labored for its existence. It has developed from one building on a 10 acre campus to 20 buildings on a 50 acre campus. In June, 1926, Mans- field was granted the authority to confer the Bachelor of Science degree in Education and thus it became a State Teachers College. Regardless of the hardships of two World Wars and the possible danger ol a third, Mansfield has continued to grow. Todav it is engaged in a project to expand its facilities to meet the educational needs of the men and women of the area. Throughout its span of life Mansfield State Teachers College has remained true to t he motto set forth by its founders: Character as the essential. Schol- arship as the enrichment, and Service as the end of all worths ' endeavor.
