The Teachers College is an academic college of Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. The Teachers College is housed in a 10 story building and is the tallest building in Delaware County.
[edit] History
Ball State University started out as a private teachers college and began teaching as the Eastern Indiana Normal School and all the classrooms, residence halls, offices and dining facilities were all located within Ball State University's Administration Building. In 1918, the college was bought by Muncie industrialists and was given to the state of Indiana, making the teachers college public. In 1922, the growth of the campus expanded to several buildings and the name was changed to the Ball Teachers College to celebrate the Ball Brothers dedication to the institution. The teachers college expanded its curricula to other programs and in 1961 the institution was renamed Ball State College and later Ball State University.
