History

• The university grew out of Genesee College, founded by the Methodist Episcopal Church as the Genesee Wesleyan Seminary in Lima, New York, in 1831, whose trustees later judged the town too isolated and sought a new home.该校由 1831 年卫理公会主教会在纽约州莱马创办的杰纳西卫斯理神学院（后为杰纳西学院）发展而来，其后校董认为该镇过于偏僻并另寻校址。

• Rather than relocate that college, its supporters obtained a new charter from the State of New York and founded Syracuse University on 24 March 1870, with the Methodist church pledging 400,000 dollars and the city 100,000.该校支持者并未迁校，而是从纽约州取得新的特许状，于 1870 年 3 月 24 日创办雪城大学，卫理公会承诺捐赠 40 万美元、雪城市出资 10 万美元。

• The trustee George F. Comstock gave twenty-five acres and 25,000 dollars and the rifle manufacturer Philo Remington gave 100,000, while Bishop Jesse T.

• It was founded as a coeducational institution open to men and women, white and black, at a time when few colleges admitted women, and Bishop Peck declared at the opening that admission conditions should be equal to all persons, with men and women taking the same courses and Chancellor Erastus Otis Haven defending the policy and enrolling his own daughter.在少有院校招收女性的年代，该校自创办起即为男女同校、不区分肤色的学府；佩克主教在开办典礼上宣布入学条件应对所有人平等，男女学生修读相同课程，校长埃拉斯图斯·奥蒂斯·黑文为这一政策辩护并让自己的女儿入学。
