Located in Ric hmond. Eastern has a distinguished record of more than seven decades of educational service to th e Commonwea lth. Eastern was established in 1906. The campus of the old Central University, founded in 1874, was selected the site of the new school. In 1922, Eastern became a four-year institution known as the Eastern Kentucky State Normal School and Teachers College. In 1935, a graduate program was approved at Eastern, leading to the Master o f Arts in Education. In 1948, the Genera l Assembly removed the word "Teachers" from the name of th e College and granted the College the right to award non-professio nal degrees. The most sig nificant day since its founding came for Eastern February 26, 1966, when G overno r Edward T. Breathitt signed in to law a bill renaming the institution Eastern Kentucky University and sanctioning the awarding of graduate degrees in academic fields othe r than ed ucation. Ever-m indful of the purpose of its founding, Eastern continues to recognize its historic funct ion of preparing quality teachers for the elementary and secondary schools of the Commonwealth. However, a strong liberal arts curric ulum leading to appropriate degrees, together with p re-professional courses in several areas and graduate programs, enable Eastern to uniquely serve the Commonwealth as a regional university. 24 �The Campus Beautiful Th e nickname, "The Campus Beautiful" aptly describes the Eastern campus. It is tru ly a beautiful atmosphere in which to live and learn. Eastern, a member of the Commo nwealth 's system of regional universities, is the culmination of more than a century of higher education development on its 350-acre main campus in Richmond. Today's modern Eastern offers some 300 degree programs and opt ions in its nine academic colleges and graduate school inc l uding education, allied health and nursing, computer science, business, sciences . law enforcement, recreation, and environmental resources that provide educational opportunit ies to meet society's demands. The University seeks to fu lfill the "livin g-while-learning" concept by providing comfortable living conditions for almost 7,000 students in campus residence halls. Eastern can accommodate mo re students on campus than any other university in the state. I n addition to being a highly respected academic institution, Eastern is also noted for its program of intercollegiate athletics and recreational sports. The accomplishments of the Colone l athletic teams is a source of great pride for the student body an d campus community. Eastern is a hub for cultural enrichment opportunities as nationally known lecturers, artists, and entertainers appear on campus. A wide variety of student and facul ty musical groups also provide a fine selection of entertainment options. Wheth er it be in the area of academics, the athletic arena, or campus life, Eastern continues its stride toward excellence. �Eastern Kentucky University ,, 1985 Men's Track & Field It tr Schedule .J· ,.!/ ,J,•' /;;- /{ D ate Opponent )~ Site i ·.~-.-· h'/~ Jan. 18-19 Eastman Inv itational Johnson City, TN Jan . 25 Purdue University W.
