State University of New York at GeneseoFact BookHISTORY OF GENESEOSUNY Geneseo, one of thirteen university colleges within the State University of New Yorksystem, was established by an act of the New York State Legislature in 1867 as theWadsworth Normal and Training School. In August 1871 the Legislature changed the nameto the Geneseo Normal and Training School and officially opened September 13, 1871.Curricular offerings included elementary English, advanced English, and classical studies.In the early 1900’s, the curriculum was reorganized to require two years of professionalstudy, and admission was restricted to high school graduates. In 1922, the programs wereextended to three years, and in 1938, to four years. In 1942, the College was grantedauthority to confer baccalaureate degrees in all its curricula. Basic teacher trainingprograms were expanded to include preparations for teacher-librarians, teachers ofchildren with special needs, and speech pathologists. Teacher education continues to be astrong component of the College’s programs.Geneseo became an original campus of the new State University of New York (SUNY)system at SUNY’s inception in 1948. During the next three decades the College developedstrong liberal arts and sciences programs and added several professional curricula to itsofferings. The first master’s degrees were awarded in 1951. In 1962, the teachers collegesof the State University became Colleges of Arts and Sciences. Geneseo’s four-year degreeprograms in arts and sciences were implemented in 1964. Since then, the School ofBusiness was established and majors have been added in such areas as biochemistry,geophysics, and international relations. The College now offers more than 50 degreeprograms in a wide variety of disciplines. Cooperative programs have been developed inseveral fields with other institutions, including 3-2 engineering, 3-4 dental, and 3-2 and 4-1MBA programs. The College’s commitment to providing a broad-based liberal artseducation was confirmed in 1980 with the institution of a required core curriculum innatural sciences and mathematics, social sciences, humanities, and fine arts. Furtherrevision in 1999 added critical writing, a quantitative requirement and foreign language.The College continues to improve and upgrade its curriculum through regular review andassessment. The strength of the liberal arts program was recognized in 2003 with approvalfor the installation of a Phi Beta Kappa chapter on campus. The chapter inducted its firstclass in spring, 2004.Since 1994, SUNY Geneseo has been a member of the Council of Public Liberal ArtsColleges (COPLAC), an alliance of high quality, public liberal arts institutions. Found in 1987,COPLAC serves to promote excellent undergraduate education in the liberal arts tradition;the development of effective teaching and learning communities; and the expansion ofaccess to public undergraduate liberal arts education of the highest caliber. COPLAC’smembership currently consists of twenty-five public liberal arts colleges and universitieswho are committed to providing and advocating for the superlative, life-enhancingundergraduate education normally associated with small independentPrepared by the Office of Institutional ResearchPage 2

Ourcommunity is defined as a group of faculty, students and staff who live and work togetherat Geneseo because they share common goals that are based on the ideals of highereducation rooted in the liberal arts.Although they share common goals, the members of the Geneseo community also differ inmany ways. Diversity at Geneseo is defined in part as differences in individuals that aremanifested in their race, ethnicity, national origin, language heritage, world-view, religion,gender, sexual orientation, class, physical ability, learning style, geographic background,mental health, age, and relationship status.Geneseo recognizes that the individuals who make up our community bring to it uniqueperspectives and knowledge that contribute to its richness and vibrancy. Because Geneseoalso holds educational excellence among its core value, it recognizes that its progress as acommunity toward such excellence is predicated on its ability to embrace both thediversity of its members and the vigorous exchange of their ideas.Geneseo calls all members of our community to share responsibility for the ongoing workof continually recreating a sense of inclusion, belonging, and empowerment, so thattogether we will achieve our individual and collective aims, and experience the intellectualliberation that is at the heart of the educational enterprise.Endorsed by the College Senate and Approved by the President, September 2003.Prepared by the Office of Institutional ResearchPage 5
