Albert Gallatin, Secretary of
Treasury under Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, proclaimed his proposition
to make "in this colossal and quickly developing city ... an arrangement
of objective and pragmatic training fitting for all and charitably opened to
all". A three-day long "scholarly and experimental tradition"
held in City Hall in 1830 and went to by more than 100 agents faced off
regarding the terms of an arrangement for another college. These New Yorkers
accepted the city required a college intended for young fellows who might be
conceded based upon legitimacy instead of claim, status, or social class. On
April 18, 1831, a foundation was built, with the backing of a gathering of
unmistakable New York City inhabitants from the city's landed class of traders,
investors, and traders. Albert Gallatin was chosen as the establishment's first
president. On April 21, 1831, the new organization got its sanction and was
consolidated as the University of the City of New York by the New York State
Legislature; more established archives frequently allude to it by that name.
The college has been prevalently known as New York University since it’s starting and was authoritatively
renamed New York University in 1896.In 1832, NYU held its first classes in
leased rooms of four-story Clinton Hall, arranged close City Hall. In 1835, the
School of Law, NYU's first expert school, was built. In spite of the fact that
the force to establish another school was incompletely a response by zealous
Presbyterians to what they saw as the Episcopalianism of Columbia College, NYU
was made non-denominational, dissimilar to numerous American universities at
the time.
It
became one of the nation's largest universities, with an enrollment of 9,300 in
1917.NYU had its Washington Square campus since its founding. The university purchased a
campus at University Heights in the Bronx because of overcrowding on the old campus. NYU
also had a desire to follow New York City's development further uptown. NYU's
move to the Bronx occurred in 1894.
