Alm a Model of Education at Central Michigan Normal School
Educational advantages in Alma are highlighted by the Central Michigan Normal School in a sick building project costing funds. Under Prof O J Stilwell, the school boasts a brick dormitory, eight recital rooms, a 900 seat chapel, a commercial room, a library, offices, a chemical lab, and a philosophical apparatus. The dormitory, dining room, and careful campus layout support a fourteen-man faculty, with departments in Classics, Neural, Preparatory, Math, Elocution, Fine Arts, Telegraphy, Penmanship, and more. The key aim is affordable education rivaling expensive institutions, plus plans for a Presbyterian Synod college to anchor the state’s intellectual life, promising growth for a growing Alma.
