Over the 150-plus year history of the college, there been 10 presidents, each with their own achievements. Originally dubbed the Oswego State Normal and Training School, Oswego became a teachers’ college under Ralph W. Swetman in 1938. In 1960, Oswego was established as a liberal arts school and the name was changed to the State University of New York College of Education at Oswego. Two years later, in the final years of Foster S. Brown’s presidency, the name was shortened to State University of New York College at Oswego.
