Brooklyn College

Brooklyn College is a public college in Brooklyn, New York City, with about 14,700 undergraduate students and 3,100 graduate students on a 35-acre campus. It is part of the City University of New York. Brooklyn College was founded in 1930, as a result of the merger of the Brooklyn branches of Hunter College – at that time a women's college – and the City College of New York – a men's college – both of which had been established in 1926. It became the first public coeducational liberal arts college in New York City. Brooklyn College's alumni include US Senators, US federal judges, US Securities and Exchange Commission Chairmen, Olympians, company CEOs, and winners of Academy Awards, Emmy Awards, and Pulitzer Prizes.

Brooklyn College was founded in 1930. That year as directed by the New York City Board of Higher Education on April 22, 1930, the college authorized the combination of the Downtown Brooklyn branches of Hunter College – at that time a women's college – and the City College of New York – a men's college – both of which had been established in 1926. With the merger of these branches, Brooklyn College became the first public coeducational liberal arts college in New York City. The tuition-free college opened in September 1930. However, while the college diverged from the practices of both Hunter College and City College by admitting both men and women, initially separate classes were maintained until junior year.
