Bismarck State College – Schafer Hall

Schafer Hall was the first building constructed at the current Bismarck State College site, built in 1961.

Bismarck State College first opened in 1939, inside the high school – where it remained until 1955. It once again relocated in 1961 after the completion of Schafer Hall.
