About University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh

University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh was established in 1871 as the Oshkosh State Normal School, a teacher-training school. The university was the first such school in the nation to have a kindergarten; Professor Rose C. Swart introduced practice teaching in 1872. Tuition was originally free to all who declared their intention to teach in Wisconsin public schools. In 1916, fire destroyed the main campus building; Dempsey Hall replaced it in 1918. The institution changed its name to Oshkosh State Teachers College in 1927 and Wisconsin State College-Oshkosh in 1951. Graduate school was added in 1963. In 1971, the institution merged into the University of Wisconsin System, becoming the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. Led by Chancellor Andrew J. Leavitt, UW Oshkosh serves the region as the third-largest university in Wisconsin with an annual on- and off-campus enrollment of nearly 14,000. The university has pledged a campus goal of being carbon-neutral by 2030.[6] In 2018, the University of Wisconsin System dissolved the University of Wisconsin Colleges, and their campuses became affiliated with area universities in the system.[7] University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh now operates satellit...e campuses in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin as University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh, Fond du Lac Campus (formerly UW-Fond du Lac) and Menasha, Wisconsin as University of Wisconsin–Oshkosh, Fox Cities Campus (formerly UW-Fox Valley).
