Good morning Bulldogs,
One hundred and twenty five years ago today, the State Normal School at Duluth was created with a signature by Minnesota Governor David M. Clough, approving the vote of the Minnesota State Legislature. I am grateful to our former legislative leaders across the state who knew that a higher education investment in Duluth would prove beneficial for decades to come.
Our plan was to have a fun celebration on campus today to mark this momentous occasion, but given the current social distancing requirements, we will celebrate our "half birthday" on Friday, October 2, 2020 instead. I hope you can join us.
In the meantime, you can test your historical UMD knowledge and find more photos, stories, and history on the UMD 125th website.
