==History==
The university was founded as ''East Central State Normal School'' in 1909, two years after Oklahoma was admitted as the 46th U.S. state. It was one of the six newly created state funded normal schools that were designed to provided four years of "preparatory" (or high school) study, followed by two years of college work towards teacher certification. The school's establishment was the product of the intense lobbying efforts of the 25,000 Club, a local booster group.〔Turner, Alvin O., "(East Central University )," ''(Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture )'' (accessed June 9, 2010).〕 The club raised funds for faculty salaries so classes could begin that fall in local churches and public school classrooms.〔 Graduates of the normal school program received lifetime teaching certification statewide.〔 The 1910 Oklahoma Legislature funded faculty salaries and a the construction of a building on a site donated by a Chickasaw allottee.〔 In 1919, the normal schools were authorized by the Oklahoma Legislature to offer four years of teacher education, to offer bachelor's degrees, and were designated teachers' colleges.〔
Expanding beyond education degrees, in 1939 the school became East Central State College.〔 Fifteen years later, the regional colleges were allowed to offer graduate degrees. By 1974, the state legislature renamed the state colleges, and it became East Central Oklahoma State University—a name it retained until 1985 when it gained its present name.〔
