New York Institute of Technology- Old Westbury
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaThe New York Institute of Technology (also known as NYIT and New York Tech) is a private, co-educational college in New York in the USA and is the birthplace of the 3D computer animation system. The college has three New York campuses, two on Long Island and one on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, as well as global locations. The NYIT Computer Graphics Lab is listed in history as one of the top computer graphics research and development groups in the world.
History
The founders of NYIT, and in particular Dr. Alexander Schure, Ph.D., started the institute with the purpose of creating a career-oriented school that focused on giving students the training necessary to succeed in their chosen careers. NYIT began operations in 1955 at 500 Pacific Street in Brooklyn, N.Y. with only nine students.
The function of higher education was highly debated at the time. There was growing concern that American schools and colleges were failing to meet critical national demands, particularly the need for scientists, engineers, and high-level technicians. This anxiety, in turn, generated another concern – fear that humanities studies would become overshadowed by an emphasis on science and engineering.
NYIT’s first administrators created a balance, a successful coexistence of career training and liberal arts education.
Leaders of the college took an early stand, committing NYIT to a policy of access. In addition to opening its doors to high school graduates who wanted to attend, NYIT created an extensive range of student services to help ensure the college’s success.
The career-focused mission of the school and its "access to opportunity policy" were well-received in the marketplace, resulting in rapid enrollment growth. By the 1958-1959 academic year, NYIT had more than 300 students and the time had come to expand its physical operations.
In April 1958, the college purchased the former Knights of Pythias building at 135-145 W. 70th St. in Manhattan for its main center. NYIT’s Brooklyn building soon became home to the college’s division of general studies. The Manhattan building, adjacent to the planned Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, was an ornate 12-story structure with a columned entranceway. Built in 1929 at a cost of $2 million, it included among its features a huge 1,200-seat auditorium.
