WILLIAM PATERSON COLLEGE A BRIEF HISTORY William Paterson College has had a long and varied history of service to the people of New Jersey. Founded in 1855 in down- town Paterson as a city normal school, the college maintained that connection for nearly 70 years. As the school came under the control of the State in 1923, its programs grew in variety and were gradually expanded to a four-year sequence. In 1937 the college became New Jersey State Teachers College at Paterson, while the institution continued in its mission, the preparation of elementary school teachers. In 1951 the college moved to occupy its present location, a wooded hilltop in the Northeastern corner of Wayne with portions of the grounds in the municipalities of Haledon and North Haledon. From this central location, just outside the city of Paterson and only 20 miles west of New York City, the college is easily acces- sible to members of urban, suburban, and rural communities. The institution became Paterson State College in 1958, and by 1963 it offered 12 major programs at both elementary and secondary levels. In 1966 the college began offering a baccalaureate pro- gram in nursing and a variety of major and minor programs in the liberal arts. The college was renamed the William Paterson College of New Jersey in 1971, honoring the distinguished New Jersey associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court in the eight- eenth century. The name change coincided with the college ' s transformation into a multi-purpose, regional state institution, offering graduate and undergraduate programs.
