Sowards. It was founded as Fairmount College in 1895, incorporated as a mu- nicipal university in 1926, and was incorporated into the Kansas state system of higher education as Wichita State University in 1964. Fairmount College continues to be the 4'basic college at Wichita State University, in that it pro- vides a general education to its students, rather than training them in a specific area. Many students combine a liberal arts degree with programs in professional training, such as ,journalism and sci- ence. In this way, and many others, a student of Fairmount College does, in fact, attain a Hliberaln education.
