The University of Wisconsin-Superior traces its roots to 1893, when Wisconsin legislators established a school in Superior to train teachers. Three years later, Superior Normal School greeted its first students. After training a generation of teachers, Superior Normal School was authorized in 1926 to grant a bachelor's degree in education. A new name, Superior State Teachers College, proclaimed the institution's new role. Now known as U.W. Superior, the university maintains the longest continuous accreditation of any academic institution in Wisconsin. |
