A country club fairway becomes the University of Missouri-St. Louis
1963
Normandy, Missouri
Normandy voters passed a bond in 1957 so their school district could buy the 128 acre Bellerive Country Club, clubhouse and golf course included. A two year college opened in the clubhouse in 1960 with 205 freshmen, four faculty and one administrator. The legislature handed it to the university system in 1963, and it is now the newest of the four University of Missouri campuses.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
