ALMA MATER
Far above the river winding
Ever seaward Susquehanna
Midst the mountains grand,
Never resting nows;
Stands our College, dear to students Ever upward, striving, climbing
Onward -Bloomsburg goes .
Far throughout the land.
Chorus

Far and wide though we may wander, Bloomsburg, Blooms·b urg, Bloomsburg

Still our hearts are true;
To our hilltop Alma Mater
Up on College Hill;
We our pledge renew.
Years to come shall find us ever
True to Bloomsburg still.
Words-Joseph H. Dennis

HISTORY OF BLOOMSBURG STATE COLLEGE
Academy, Literary Institute, State Normal School, State Teachers College,
and State College - such has been the development of the Bloomsburg state
College since its inception in 1839. A charter for the Bloomsburg Literary
Institute was drawn up ,i n 1856. Recognized as a State Normal School on
February 19, 1869, it remained a private institution untiil May 22, 1916, when
it was purchased by the Commonwea}th of Pennsylvania. The transition
to state Teachers College was begun in 1927 when authority to confer the
Bachelor of Science degree in Education was granted. By an Act of the
General Assembly in January, 1960, the fourteen State Teachers Colleges of
Pennsylvania became State Colleges. Courses leading to the Master of
Education degree were authorized by the ,s tate Council of Education in the
same year. The college was granted approval by the State Council of
Education to offer courses leacl.dng to the \Bachelor of Arts degree in the
Natural Sciences, the Social Sciences, and the Humanities, beginning
September, 1963.
