Old Main Hall was built in 1896 as Central Detroit High School, which later began adding college classes in 1917 as the Detroit Junior College, becoming the College of the City of Detroit and now the College of Liberal Arts.

Mackenzie continued as Dean until his death in 1926 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_L._Mackenzie.In 1927, the Detroit Board of Education dedicated its newest high school to the memory of David L.

The Cass corridor would be considered one of the University's most notable surroundings, with a venerable history and culture that has left an imprint on many of the WSU alumni.

Athletics The school's intercollegiate athletic program was established in 1917 by director of athletics David L. Holmes. Revered by his athletes, Holmes initially coached all sports. His track teams were nationally known into the 1950s; in his first ten years, he produced two Olympians from the school's Victorian-era gym. Although he had major ambitions for Wayne and scheduled such teams as Notre Dame and Penn State in the 1920s, the lack of facilities and money for athletics kept the athletic program small.

A student poll selected the name of "Tartars" for the school's teams in 1927. In 1999, the university changed the name to the "Warriors," due to a feeling that the Tartar name was dated and that not many people knew what a Tartar was.Wayne State University Press Release.
