merchants, bankers, and traders established the university on April 18, 1831. These people believed the city needed a university designed for young men who would be admitted based

on merit, not social class. In 1832, NYU held its first classes in rented rooms in four-story

Clinton Hall, situated near City Hall. Finally the university was situated in the Greenwich

Village, a section of Manhattan. One of the men who did this possible was Albert Gallatin,
