These are the first buildings on what is now the Emporia State and Kansas State University campuses. The ' Stone Building' (left) housed what was then known as the Normal School and was dedicated on Jan. 2, 1867, in Emporia. This Bluemont College (which would later become KSU) building photo was taken in 1867.
Kansas State University and Emporia State University are celebrating their sesquicentennials this year. This week on KPR Presents, Kaye McIntyre travels to Manhattan and Emporia to find out what the Wildcats and Hornets are doing to mark their 150th anniversaries.
