Administrative History
The Associated Colleges of Upper New York were established in response to the needs of veterans returning from WWII and eligible for government education benefits. The colleges were constituted as quasi-public institutions intended for temporary existence. They were duly closed in the early 1950s. Closure dates for the campuses as recorded are as follows: Champlain College (1953), Middletown Collegiate Center (1950), Mohawk College (1948), and Sampson College (1949).
