1889

Weber comes from John Henry Weber, an early fur trader. The university opened for students on January 7, 1889. By the late 1920's, the college was in financial difficulty and the Utah Legislature passed a law allowing the purchase of both Weber College and Snow College from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In 1954 the college moved from downtown Ogden the southeast bench area of the city where it resides currently.

1901 · Assassination of Mckinley

President William McKinley was shot at the Temple of Music, in the Pan-American Exposition, while shaking hands with the public. Leon Czolgosz shot him twice in the abdomen because he thought it was his duty to do so. McKinley died after eight days of watch and care. He was the third American president to be assassinated. After his death, Congress passed legislation to officially make the Secret Service and gave them responsibility for protecting the President at all times.

Name Meaning

German:

variant of Linz 1 and, in North America, (also) an altered form of this.

from a derivative of an ancient Germanic personal name formed with the first element lind ‘linden tree, shield’ (see Linde 1) or lint ‘snake’ (see Lins 2). This surname (in any of the two possible senses; see also 1 above) is also found in France (Alsace and Lorraine). Compare Lints .
