Bemidji State University began an 18-month celebration of its pending centennial with a series of April 12 kickoff events across campus.
Professor Emeritus of History Art Lee’s definitive history of Bemidji State, “University in the Pines,” has been an invaluable resource as we have prepared for our Centennial.
On April 4, 1918, ground was broken for construction of Bemidji State Normal School’s first building, “The Main.” It’s now named Deputy Hall, after BSU’s first president Manfred Deputy.
