ALMA MATER
Far above the river winding
Midst the mountains grand,
Stands our College, dear to students
Far throughout the land.
Ever seaward Susquehanna
Never resting flows;
Ever upward, striving, climbing
Onward Bloomsburg goes.
Far and wide though we may wander,
Still our hearts are true;
To our hilltop Alma Mater
We our pledge renew.
Chorus
Bloomsburg, Bloomsburg,
Bloomsburg College
Up on College Hill;
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 Bloomsburg since its
inception as an Academy in 1839. A charter providing for the Bloomsburg
Literary Institute was drawn up in 1856. Recognized as a State Normal
School on February 19, 1869, Bloomsburg remained a private institution
until May, 1916 when it was purchased by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The transition from Normal School to State Teachers College was
begun in 1927 when authority to confer the lfachelor 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.
Authorization to offer courses leading to the Master of Education degree was
given by the State Council of Education in the same year. In the Spring of 1962,
the college was granted approval by the State Council of Education to offer
courses leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree in the Natural Sciences, the
Social Sciences, and the Humanities, beginning September, 1962. The first
students enrolled in this program began their studies in September, 1963.
The Academic Costume
The academic costumes worn by members of the faculty have a special significance. The inside collar of the hood indicates the colors of the college or
university which awarded the degree. The color of the outside rim of the
hood symbolizes one of the following departments of learning:
Arts, Letters, Humanities - White
Business - Drab
Economics - Copper
Education - Light Blue
Fine Arts - Brown
Library Science - Lemon
Music - Pink
Philosophy - Blue
Physical Education - Sage Green
Science - Gold Yellow
Social Science - Citron
Theology or Divinity - Scarlet
