History

• On 7 May 1844 a vote of the New York State Legislature created the New York State Normal School, also called the Albany Normal School, which opened with 29 students and four faculty members in an abandoned railroad depot on State Street in the heart of the city, the first New York State-chartered public institution of higher education.1844 年 5 月 7 日，纽约州议会表决设立纽约州立师范学校，又称奥尔巴尼师范学校，开学时仅有 29 名学生和 4 名教员，借市中心州街一座废弃铁路货站上课，是纽约州特许的首家公立高等教育机构。

• Originally dedicated to training New York schoolteachers and administrators, by the early 1890s it had become the New York State Normal College at Albany, and with a revised four-year curriculum adopted in 1905 it was the first public institution of higher education in New York granted the power to confer the bachelor's degree.学校起初专为纽约州培养中小学教师和教育管理人员，19 世纪 1890 年代初改称纽约州立师范学院，1905 年修订四年制课程后，成为纽约州第一所获授学士学位权力的公立高等院校。

• A new campus, today the Downtown Campus, was built in 1909 on a site of 4.5 acres between Washington and Western avenues after the previous location on Willett Street burned down, and construction began there with Draper, Husted and Hawley halls.1909 年，在华盛顿大道与西方大道之间一块 4.5 英亩的土地上建成新校园，即今天的下城校区，此前位于威利特街的校址曾毁于大火，首批建筑为德雷珀楼、赫斯蒂德楼和霍利楼。

• By 1913 the institution was home to 590 students and 44 faculty members, offered a master's degree for the first time and bore the new name of the New York State College for Teachers at Albany, and enrollment grew to a peak of 1,424 in 1932 while its curriculum came to resemble a four-year liberal arts college without abandoning teacher training.到 1913 年，全校已有 590 名学生和 44 名教员，首次开设硕士学位，并更名为纽约州立奥尔巴尼教师学院，学生人数至 1932 年增至 1,424 人的峰值，课程体系虽渐近四年制文理学院，但师范培养的核心始终未弃。

• In 1948 the State University of New York system was created with the College for Teachers and the state's other teacher-training schools serving as its nuclei, embodying the vision of Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller of a public university system for the post-war baby boom, for which he launched a construction program developing more than 50 new campuses.1948 年纽约州立大学系统成立，奥尔巴尼教师学院与州内其他师范学校成为其核心，这一体系体现了州长纳尔逊·A·洛克菲勒为二战后婴儿潮一代兴建公立大学的构想，他随即启动新建 50 余座校园的大规模建设计划。

• Reflecting a broadening mission, the College for Teachers was renamed the SUNY College of Education at Albany in 1959, became a four-year liberal arts college as the State University College at Albany in 1961, and in 1962 was designated a doctoral-degree granting university center.随着使命扩展，教师学院于 1959 年更名为纽约州立奥尔巴尼教育学院，1961 年改组为四年制文理学院型州立学院，1962 年被确定为可授予博士学位的大学中心。

• By 1970 enrollment had grown to 13,200 and the faculty to 746, and that same year the protest movement against the Vietnam War engulfed the university when a student strike was called in response to the killing of protesters at Kent State.至 1970 年，学生人数已增至 13,200 人，教员增至 746 人，同年反越战抗议席卷全校，肯特州立大学枪杀示威者事件后全校爆发学生罢课。
