==Athletics==
Montclair State University's athletic teams have played under many names in the school's history. From the late 1920s to '30s, the school played as the "Big Red" and featured a large scarlet "M" on its uniforms. Next, Montclair State Teacher's College competed as the Indians, using a logo with a [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] chief's profile with the initials "MSTC" emblazoned on the caricature's headdress.<ref name="logo history">{{Cite web|url=http://www.montclairathletics.com/documents/2012/2/3/MSULogoHistory.pdf?id=254|title=''MSU Logo History''|work=montclairathletics.com}} Retrieved 2016-8-12</ref> The initials were changed to "MSC" when the school became Montclair State College in 1958. In response to the growing concerns voiced by Native Americans, the school changed its nickname to the Red Hawks,<ref name="logo history"/> named after the [[Red-tailed Hawk]]s that are indigenous to the area. Montclair’s Athletic teams all play in the NCAA Division III (Campus Teams). Montclair’s 2023 season was wonderful for the men’s soccer team, they would win the NJAC Division and would go on to make it to the semi finals of the National Championship before falling to Connecticut College on penalties.

The original Montclair State University campus consisted of College Hall, Russ Hall, Chapin Hall and Morehead Hall, all built between 1908 and 1928. It was 2 miles south of the intersection of [[U.S. Route 46]] and [[New Jersey Route 3|Route 3]]. Housing for students returning from [[World War II]] was added near the end of the war. Between 1950 and 1980, Montclair State gradually acquired land from a former traprock quarry and expanded its facilities with an additional 23 buildings. Montclair State University began its next phase of growth in the late 1990s to accommodate New Jersey's growing student population. Dickson Hall was dedicated in 1995. The building is named for David W.D. Dickson, the first African American president of Montclair State University. The [[Floyd Hall]] Arena, an ice skating rink, was built in 1998. Science Hall, the home of the Department of Biology, opened in 1999. The Red Hawk Diner was built in 2001, making it the first diner on a university campus in the United States.
