Emporia State University

Emporia State University, often referred to as Emporia State or ESU, is a public university in Emporia, Kansas, United States, east of the Flint Hills. Established in March 1863 and originally known as the Kansas State Normal School, Emporia State is the third oldest public university in the state of Kansas. Emporia State is one of six public universities governed by the Kansas Board of Regents.

The university offers degrees in more than 80 courses of study through four colleges and/or schools: the School of Business, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, School of Library and Information Management, and The Teachers College. The Teachers College is one of only four post-secondary institutions in the nation to be identified as an Exemplary Model Teacher Education program by Arthur Levine in his 2006 national study of teacher education programs.

Emporia State's intercollegiate athletic teams are known as the Hornets with the exception of the women's teams, which are known as the Lady Hornets. Emporia State competes in NCAA Division II and is a member of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA). Since joining the NCAA Division II in 1991, the Lady Hornets basketball team is the only team to win a NCAA championship.

Empire State

by: Fleetwood Mac

New York, open your eyes to me
let me be what i want to be
tell me, tell me it's not too late
CHORUS:
big apple, takin' a bite of me
whole world movin' below my feet
not like, not like we do in L.A.
New York, make me a part of you
straight, straight through the heart of you
tell me, tell me it's not too late
flying high on the Empire State
flying high on the Empire State
New York, watch me burn ya' down
straight, straight through the heart of town
tell me, tell me i'm not too late
(repeat chorus)
