==History==
(詳細はnormal school created outside the original 13 colonies. One hundred and twenty-two students started classes March 29, 1853. Adonijah Welch served as Michigan State Normal School's first principal. Michigan created a state educational system modeled on that of Germany. The normal schools were to train teachers for common schools, which were being established rapidly in new towns in the state. In 1899, the school became the Michigan State Normal College when it created the first four-year curriculum for a normal college in the nation. Normal began the 20th century as Michigan's premier teacher-preparatory school and had become the first teacher-training school in the United States to have a four-year degree program.〔 Just like many other universities during World War I, the Great Depression and World War II, the school survived and expanded further.〔 With the additions of departments and the large educational enrollment after WWII, the school became Eastern Michigan College in 1956.
In 1959 the school became a university gaining the title Eastern Michigan University after establishing the Graduate School (graduate classes were offered since 1939).〔 Between 1959 through 1980 the College of Education, College of Arts and Sciences, Graduate School, College of Business, College of Health and Human Services and College of Technology were established. In the early 1970s, international student exchange schemes were organised, including one with Coventry College of Education (later part of the University of Warwick) in Britain.〔"Guest Commentary: A Britisher takes a look at us..." The Eastern Echo, Friday, February 19, 1971〕〔"Canley Students on the U.S. Campus," Coventry Evening Telegraph, 16 August 1971, p.8〕 In 2005, the Honors Program became the Eastern Michigan University Honors College. More recently, extended programs were added such as Continuing Education (which includes EMU Online), the Centers for Corporate Training, the World College and numerous community-focused institutes. Today the university's total student population averages about 23,000, of whom roughly 5,000 are graduate students. Most programs are undergraduate or master's level, although the university has doctoral programs in Educational Leadership, Technology, and Psychology. EMU's current President is Susan W. Martin, Ph.D., who took office as EMU's twenty-second president on July 7, 2008, just after the university was fined a then-record $350,000 for not reporting to students the sexual assault and murder of a student in her residence hall room.
