The college thrived and the farm grew into a great university for advanced study in agriculture, science and the arts. When the first students--61 of them-arrived for the dedication ceremonies in the spring of 1857, the col- lege was only a crude clearing in the wilderness of nature and the minds of men. Three buildings, a few acres of virgin soil and six dedicated men, this was Michigan Agricultural College. In the next few decades, the idea of the land grant college crystallized. The campus expanded as did the curriculum and enrollment. The agricultural college was evolving into a significant aspect of the American educational scene.
