NEW YORK UNIVERSITYOne hundred and seventy years ago, Albert Gallatin, the distinguished statesman who served as secretary of the treasury under President Thomas Jefferson, declared his intention to establish \"in this immense and fast-growing city ... a system of rational and practical education fitting for all and graciously open to all.\"

At that time, 1831, most students in American colleges and universities were members of the privileged classes. Albert Gallatin and the University\'s founding fathers planned NYU as a center of higher learning that would be open to all, regardless of national origin, religious beliefs, or social background.

NYU’s Alma Mater, “New York University Even-Song”(also known as “The Palisades”), was written in 1900 by Duncan Macpherson Genns.

“Our dear old NYU” became even more appropriate in 1945 when Dorothy I. Pearce, a Washington Square College student,wrote a third verse.As the earlier verses paid homage to the University Heights campus (part of NYU from 1895 to 1973), Pearce’s verse praised “the archway that ever stands triumphant”and symbolically links NYU to the surrounding community.

\"The Palisades\"

\"O grim grey Palisades thy shadows upon the rippling Hudson falls; And mellow mingled tints of sunset illumine now our classic halls, While students gather round thine altars with tribute of devotion true, and mingle merry hearts and voices in praise of N.Y.U.\"
