This statute was approved on February 25, 1851 1858 Minnesota becomes a state. 1879 The city of Crookston is incorporated. 1895 The Minnesota legislature appropriates $30,000 to procure equipment and to construct two experimental research farms, one at Morris and one at Crookston. The Great Northern Railway, under the guidance of James J. hill, donates 476.61 acres. The Northwest Experiment Station is established. 1905 Minnesota legislature appropriates $15,000 to establish the Northwest School of Agriculture, a regional residential agricultural high school. The school provides training in “the technical and practical business of agriculture and in the art of homemaking.” The term of schooling begins in October and ends in March to accommodate farm students. 1909 The first class graduates from the Northwest School of Agriculture. 1963 With the changing demands of the region and in the agriculture industry, it becomes apparent to state officials that a college-level technical educational institution is urgently needed. A study by the University of Minnesota Bureau of Field Studies begins an examination of new roles for the Northwest School of Agriculture. University Regents discuss launching a college-level tech-nical institute. 1965 Dr. Stanley D. Sahlstrom is appointed head of the University of Minnesota Technical Institute to be located on the campus of the Northwest School of Agriculture in Crookston. 1966 Classes begin in September at the University of Minnesota Technical Institute. Associate in Applied Science degrees are of-fered in three academic divisions: Agriculture, Business, and General Studies. Dedication ceremonies for the new college are held on November 30, 1966. Students of the Northwest School of Agriculture and the U of M “Tech” share the campus through the spring of 1968. 1968 The final class of the Northwest School of Agriculture graduates in the school’s 60th commencement ceremonies. The first class graduates from the University of Minnesota Technical Institute, now an official coordinate campus of the University of Minnesota. (Renamed University of Minnesota Technical College in 1969.) 1985 Dr. Donald Sargeant is appointed provost of Crookston campus. The title for all coordinate campus chief executive officers is changed from provost to chancellor. 1988 University of Minnesota Regents officially change name of Crookston campus to University of Minnesota, Crookston. 1992 U of M Board of Regents gives UMC approval to offer baccalaureate degree programs at its June meeting. 1993 UMC’s baccalaureate degree programs are approved by the Minnesota Higher Education Coordinating Board and accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Three academic divisions support the new polytechnic concept: Agricultural Management, Management, and Technical Studies. Classes for the baccalaureate degrees begin that fall. In the fall UMC’s technology component is also initiated, providing each full-time student with a notebook computer and preinstalled software. 1994 UMC’s first bachelor of science degrees are awarded at commencement ceremonies. A small group of students had been working on a “3 + 1” degree agreement before UMC had been authorized to offer four-year degrees. In the spring of 1994, twenty-four students receive their B.S. degree at UMC. 1998 A new structure for Academic Affairs redefines program areas into four academic centers and one technology support center. UMC is ranked third in “Best Midwest Regional Colleges” by US News for the 1998-99 year.
