University of Wisconsin--Stout. School of Liberal Studies.
Agency History: Liberal arts classes were offered at Stout sa early as 1903. However, it wasn't until John Erle Grinnel arrived on campus in 1932 that the Department of Liberal Arts was created. At that time the department consisted of four divisions; the Division of Science and Mathematics, the Division of English Language and Literature, the Division of Social Studies, and the Division of Education. In the 1940's and 1950's liberal arts at Stout expanded, largely due to the pressure from accrediting agencies.
In 1964, the School of Liberal Studies was formed with Dwight Agnew as the first Dean. At that time the art and music departments were combined into a department of fine arts, and the math and science department was split into two separate departments. The purpose of the new school was to provide direct professional preparation and career preparation. In 1977 Ted Baker replaced Agnew as the Dean of the School. Baker, in turn, was replaced by Gerane Dougherty in 1980. As of 1989, the School of Liberal Studies included the Depts. of Art and Design, Biology, Chemistry, English, Math, Music, Physical Education and Athletics, Physics, Social Science, Speech, and Foreign Language.
