Idaho State University opened in 1901 on 10 acres of land donated by the residents of Pocatello east of the Oregon Short Line Railroad tracks. From its humble beginnings as a school for vocational training with four faculty and fewer than 100 students, ISU has grown into a research institution serving over 12,000 students. Join ISU Professor Alex Bolinger as he shares engaging anecdotes from ISU’s 124-year history from a book written by his students for an innovative class (“Collaborative Creativity”) in the College of Business.
