==History== The University of Minnesota's graduate program for public policy was founded on the East Bank campus in 1938 as the Public Administration Center. In 1968, it achieved autonomy as a graduate school within the university and became the School of Public Affairs. The School was replaced in 1977 with the founding of the Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs, named to honor former Vice President Hubert Humphrey for his contributions to improving the well-being of humanity. It was renamed the Humphrey School of Public Affairs in 2011 to better reflect its academic mission.<ref>{{Cite web|title = History, Legacy & Awards|url = https://www.hhh.umn.edu/about/history-legacy-awards|website = Humphrey School of Public Affairs|access-date = 2015-12-08}}</ref>
