The Thomas Gray Campus Laboratory School, opened in 1958, replaced Riverview as the campus laboratory school. The campus laboratory school closed in 1983 and, in 1984, was repurposed and renamed Engineering and Computing Center. The building was initially named for Thomas Gray, who graduated from St. Cloud State in 1872, served as the school's president from 1884 to 1890.

The 1938 annual meeting of the Minnesota Academy of Science took place at St. John's University on April 23, 1936. This program shows 28 scientific talks, ranging from seismic geophysical prospecting to "Early Man did Roam in Minnesota." There was a program for the Junior Academy, including a science movie. The docket for the business meeting is also included. Full-text of the published papers is available in the digitized Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science.
The 1952 annual meeting of the Minnesota Academy of Science took place at State Teachers College in St. Cloud on May 2-3, 1952. This program shows 30+ scientific talks, ranging from Minnesota fisheries to ore prospecting to the flora of the Cedar Creek Forest. There was a special session for high school science teachers, with a discussion on "Organizing and Sponsoring a Chapter of the Junior Academy of Science." Full-text of the published papers is available in the digitized Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science.
The 1960 annual meeting of the Minnesota Academy of Science took place at St. Cloud State College on May 6-7, 1960. This program shows 60+ scientific talks, ranging from late prehistorical archeological sites in Clearwater County to "The Effects of Highway Improvement on Land Use and Land Occupants" to nutrient transport in soybeans. The Minnesota Area Association of Physics Teachers also met, as did the National Association of Biology Teachers. The program booklet includes an "In Memoriam" list of members whose deaths had been reported since 1955, along with the year they'd joined the Academy. Full-text of the published papers is available in the digitized Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science.
