It was then known as the Weber Stake Academy. In 1918, the name of the school was changed to the Weber Normal College. In 1922, all secondary education was discontinued, and Weber College was founded as a junior college. The Utah State Legislature of 1931 passed House Bill Number 101, creating Weber College a state junior college. The school was not to be transferred to the state, however, until July 1, 1933. The Utah State Legislature of 1933 passed House Bill Number 120, which was an amendment of House Bill Number 101. It reads as follows: Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Utah. Section 1. Sections 75-6-1, 75-6-2, Revised Statutes of Utah, 1933, are amended to read as follows: 75-6-1. There shall be a state school at Ephraim City, to be known as Snow College, a junior college. The course of study therein shall be limited to the first two years of college work, and it shall be opened for registration of students for the school year beginning July 1, 1932, upon condition that the Board of Education of Snow College provides a suitable campus, buildings, and equipment for the conduct of such a school without cost to the state. (Said school shall, however, thereafter be maintained by the state.) 75-6-2. There shall be at Ogden City, a state school to be known as Weber College, a junior college. The course of study therein shall be limited to the first two years of college work, and it shall be opened for registration of students for the school year beginning July 1, 1933, upon condition that the Board of Education of Weber College provides suitable campus, buildings, and equipment for the conduct of such a school without cost to the state. (Said school shall, however, thereafter be maintained by the state.) 75-6-2. Under The State Board of Education. The State Board of Education shall have the management and control of said schools, prescribe the course of study, employ instructors and prescribe their qualifications, appoint a president for each of said schools, and prescribe entrance requirements of students to the institutions. Section 2. This act shall take effect when the Revised Statutes of Utah, 1933, become effective. In conformity with this law, on July 1, 1933, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints contributed Weber College to the State of Utah.
