Cleveland State University (abbr. CSU) is a public university located in Cleveland, Ohio. The current President is Michael Schwartz, who was previously president emeritus and a professor at Kent State University. The Provost is Mary Jane Saunders, formerly the founding Dean of the College of Science at Cleveland State University.
Cleveland State University traces its historical roots to 1870, when the Cleveland YMCA began to offer free classes. The YMCA program was formalized in 1881, reorganized in 1906 as the Association Institute, and later became the Cleveland Y.M.C.A. School of Technology. The Cleveland School of Technology was renamed Fenn College in 1929. Fenn College is named after Sereno Peck Fenn. Fenn College expanded over the years, taking over several buildings in the area including Fenn Tower, Stilwell Hall, and Foster Hall. On December 18, 1964 the state of Ohio founded The Cleveland State University. After months of negotiations The Cleveland State University took over the faculty, staff, and programs of Fenn College on September 1, 1965. Industrialist James J. Nance served as the first Board of Trustees Chairperson. The name would later be changed to simply Cleveland State University.
Since the appointment of Dr. Michael Schwartz as University President, Cleveland State has transformed its role in the community and the region, in particular as an economic development engine. Schwartz and the Provost have begun implementing their vision for the school to move it from an overall fourth tier university in the U.S. News & World Report rankings, to that of a second tier university with world class research programs. As part of this change, CSU has ended its policy of open admissions, instituted an honors program, began the process of seeking funding to boost its faculty size and prestige, and created a master plan for the campus, rebuilding the university as a residential metropolitan campus in the heart of downtown Cleveland.
