Comments
In the 1940s, Southern Illinois State Normal University was transitioning from a normal school into the university it is today. During this decade, university officials produced documentation to help justify this transformation to the Illinois General Assembly. This report provides an overview on how the university was expanding and coping with the post-war enrollment boom which was a catalyst for its rapid growth in the 1940s and 1950s.
