The Southeast Missouri State University was founded in the town of Cape Girardeau, which is a large and historical city in the State of Missouri and the iconic River Mississippi flows right by the side of the campus. Mark Twain, the famed writer from the area once had documented the main building that was built on the campus when the university was established, as a college building higher on a summit and described the building as complete with all ornamental details. The building was later renewed as Academic Hall after an unfortunate fire demolished the Old Normal building. The city itself has historical importance as it was a symbol of advancement in the slowly developing city of Cape Girardeau. The building has a dome made out of copper, after which the Copper Dome scholarship offered by the university was named.
The Math department of the university had the IBM 1620, the scientific computer of the time. In sports, the American football team of SEMO is called the Redhawks and are established since 1904. The university has more than enough residence hall buildings with all facilities and dining halls. Greek societies have their own social living buildings.
