![Virginia State University is a public, historically black college located in Petersburg, Virginia.  The university is the first fully supported, four year institution for African Americans in the United States and is one of two land-grant colleges in the State of Virginia.

The university was founded on March 6, 1882 as the Virginia Normal and College Institute after the state legislature passed a bill sponsored by Delegate Alfred W. Harris, a black attorney, which chartered the university.  The state established the university to serve the needs of a population that was at the time excluded from other public institutions in Virginia.  Virginia Normal and College Institute opened as a teacher training college for both male and female black students but it also included a modest liberal arts curriculum. @ Virginia State University](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6083687/ef4c0867-392a-4def-a0f3-abf00c1c3375.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh)
