HISTORY Missouri School of Mines Even among early settlers of Missouri wl1o opened up the lead and zinc mines in the region, and developed the other min- eral resources of the state, it was long a dream to establish a State Mining School where practical engineering could be taught. It was not until 1870 that the idea crystallized. At that time the Missouri General Assembly, accepting the conditions of the Federal Land Grant Act of 1863, definitely created the Missouri School of Mines by legislative enactment. Carrying out the provisions of the founding statute, the School was oflicially located at Rolla, Missouri, on December 8, 1870. Tl1e first class to graduate was that of 1874, which consisted of the three follow- ing graduates: GUSTAVUS H. DUNCAN . . .Civil Engineering JOHN H. G11.1. .,..,..... Civil Engineering JOHN X-V. PACK ....., Mining Engineering The present middle section of the Chem- istry Building, the First structure added to the campus, was built in 1883. In 1889 a dormitory was built but later turned into tl1e Directors Residence., The Mining and Metallurgy building was constructed in 1893, but this building is now better known as the Power Plants. Mechanical Hall, which then contained the gymnasium and machine shops, was erected in 1902. The schools largest building, Norwood Hall, built in 1903, is b11ilt on foundations of a fortress and arsenal, Fort Detty, that commanded the northeast section of town. Following Norwood Hall the buildings were built in the following order: Ore Dressing and Metallurgy Building, IQOQQ Parker Hall, 19135 Jackling Gymnasium, 1915g Mining Experiment Station, 19233 VVarehouse, 19265 and in process of being built, Harris Hall. The school grew slowly but steadily until the period 1913-141. when a few enemies of the school after repeated efforts brought a crisis into M. S. M. affairs. During that period there was a determined effort to either lin1it the courses at M. S. M. to Min- ing and Metallurgy or move tl1e school bodily to Columbia. The School of Mines was formally open- ed Nov. 23, 1871 in what is now known as tl1e Rolla Building. .....,Y. ....--. -.. , ,,,, -A. . ,
