Y FHSU celebrated its centennial in 2002. T From a humble but exciting beginning, when just two faculty members and a 19-course curriculum greeted 34 students, our I university has grown to a faculty and staff of nearly 300 each and a student body of 14,210. The university now offers hundreds of S courses in each of its four main colleges — Education, Arts and Sciences, Business and Leadership, and Health and Life Sciences R — and the Graduate School. The FHSU Virtual College provides many of the courses through various media to sites across Kansas and beyond. E FHSU is governed by a Board of Regents appointed by the governor of the state of Kansas. V FHSU is located in Hays, the largest city in northwest Kansas. Hays began as a wild frontier town
