History The state universities spent the first 100 years of existence training teachers for Pennsylvania s schools. The Normal School Act of 1857 established regional teacher training institutions throughout the Commonwealth. The School Code of 1911 called for the state purchase of all normal schools, and by 1921 the current configuration of 14 state-owned universities was established. The 14 normal schools evolved from state normal schools, to state teachers colleges, to state colleges. On November 12, 1982, Act 188 was signed into law establishing the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education on July 1, Thus, the 13 former state colleges joined with Indiana University of Pennsylvania to achieve university status. 5
