History

The first component of the modern Wayne State University was established in 1868 as the Detroit Medical College, now the School of Medicine. In 1881, the Detroit Normal Training School was established, now the College of Education. Old Main Hall was built in 1896 as Central Detroit High School, which later began adding college classes in 1917 as the Detroit Junior College, becoming the College of the City of Detroit and now the College of Liberal Arts. By 1934, the College of Pharmacy, The College of Engineering and the Graduate School had been established, and all of these schools were organized into Wayne University. Wayne University continued to grow, adding the School of Social Work in 1935, the Law School in 1937, and the School of Business Administration in 1946. Wayne University was renamed Wayne State University in 1956, and the institution became a constitutionally established university by popularly adopted amendment to the Michigan Constitution in 1959. As Wayne State University, the institution grew with the additions of the College of Lifelong Learning in 1973, the School of Fine and Performing Arts and the College of Urban, Labor and Metropolitan Affairs in 1985, and the College of Science in 1993. The University Libraries have grown to include five libraries, the Library and Information Science Program and the Office for University General Education. Over the last few years, WSU has been aggressive in constructing new green glass buildings, including a new "Welcome Center", which was controversial because of its cost and the displacement of several local businesses. New residence halls have been built, including The Towers, an 11 story resident hall.
