Adams State College

Adams State College grew from a teachers’ college into a fine liberal arts college. Adams State was recently designated the Regional Education Provider for southern Colorado. Today, students can earn a bachelor’s degree in any of 16 majors, with 28 minors and emphases.

Adams State was founded in 1921 as a teacher’s college but now offers a variety of programs including masters degrees in many fields. Billy Adams, a Colorado legislator who would later become governor, worked for three decades before obtaining the authorization to found Adams State Normal School in 1921.
