Historical NoteReturn to Top

The doors of the Washington State Normal School in Ellensburg opened in 1891. Mr. Benjamin Franklin Barge was the first principal of the school, which was founded to educate future elementary and junior high teachers. Classes were held at the Washington Public School until the normal school's first building, Barge Hall, opened in 1893. The normal school became Central Washington College of Education in 1937, Central Washington State College in 1961, and Central Washington University in 1977.

Alumni of the university have acheived in everything from pedagogy to art to athletics. One alumnus featured in this collection is Jon Kitna, player in the National Football League from 1997 to 2012.
