Connecting to Higher Education
Established in 1854, Salem State University is a four-year public institution with a student population of over 10,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Initially known as the Salem Normal School, the university began as a two-year educational institution solely devoted to women. In fact, Charlotte Forten (among the second graduating class), was the first African American teacher to travel to the South during the Civil War and teach emancipated slaves.
