History of Zanesville Campus
In 1937, Ohio University (OU) established an evening division in Zanesville, Ohio, among other places, setting up the beginnings of the branch campuses. However, in 1941, OU closed the evening divisions and returned Zanesville to the status of an extension center. In 1946, OU developed "residence credit centers" in less congested parts of southeastern Ohio including the formerly established area of Zanesville. Between 1965 and 1968, academic buildings opened, creating the Zanesville Campus, among others.
