Eastern Michigan University

Eastern Michigan University (EMU), also known as EMU, EMich, Eastern Michigan, or simply Eastern, is a public research university located in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Founded in 1849 as the Michigan State Normal School, it holds the distinction of being the fourth normal school (teachers' college) established in the United States and the first outside of New England. In 1899, the institution became the first normal school in the nation to offer a four-year curriculum, leading to its renaming as Michigan State Normal College. In 1959, it achieved university status and adopted the current name, Eastern Michigan University. EMU is one of the eight research universities in the state of Michigan and is classified as "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity." The university is governed by an eight-member board of regents appointed by the governor of Michigan and confirmed by the Michigan Senate for eight-year terms. It comprises eight colleges and schools: College of Arts and Sciences, College of Business, College of Education, College of Health and Human Services, GameAbove College of Engineering and Technology, School of Music & Dance, the Honors College, and the Graduate School. The university's campus spans 800 acres with over 120 buildings, encompassing both academic and athletic facilities. EMU Athletics utilizes Rynearson Stadium for football games, Oestrike Stadium for baseball games, and the multipurpose George Gervin GameAbove Center (formerly the EMU Convocation Center) for basketball games. The university's mascot, Swoop, was officially adopted in 1994, three years after Eastern Michigan Athletics began competing as the "Eagles."
