Central State University Alumni Center
The Story: Central State University located in Wilberforce, Ohio is loaded with American history. The school serves as a historically black university as it draws its roots from Wilberforce University. In short, as the Normal and Industrial Department of Wilberforce University expanded from a two-year program to a four-year program, it became a separate legal entity from its parent, thereby forming Central State University. When the Xenia tornado of 1974 also tore through the university it destroyed several buildings including the Galloway Tower. During the university’s Centennial celebration, school leaders dedicated the replacement tower, now housing the alumni office to Walter G. Sellers, a 1951 graduate and eventual International President of the Kiwanis Club.
