The State Teachers College at Towson, oldest and largest teacher-
education institution in the State, was established as the first State
normal school by Chapter 160, Acts of 1865. The school was originally
located in Baltimore and moved to its present suburban location at
Towson in 1915 where it occupies a campus of 100 acres. In 1936 it
became a four-year teachers college with a program leading to the
degree of Bachelor of Science.
The college currently offers programs both in teacher education
and in the arts and sciences. Graduates in teacher education may be
prepared for teaching in the kindergarten, elementary, junior high or

Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts degree. The college also
