Statewide Spread of The State Normal School
Other State Normal Schools were established in Chico in 1887, San Diego in 1897 and elsewhere throughout the State of California. With the exception of the Los Angeles campus, the system of State Normal Schools would later become the California State University system.
In 1919, the State Normal School at Los Angeles became the Southern Branch of the University of California, now the University of California, Los Angeles.
In 1921 the California State Legislature decreed that the remaining State Normal Schools would be known as State Teachers Colleges and that the original campus would be known as the State Teachers College at San Jose. In 1935, the State Teachers Colleges became the California State Colleges, administered from the State Department of Education in Sacramento. The new San Jose State College was no longer limited to educating teachers and later evolved into San José State University.
