Site Description
Hamilton College started in the late 1700's as Hamilton-Oneida Academy, which was in part named for the Oneida tribe of Upstate New York and the prior named for Alexander Hamilton. It began as a college in the early 1800's and became coeducational in 1978.
From the CTY Catalog (1997):
Hamilton College is located in Clinton, New York, a small town approximately 45 minutes from Syracuse. Chartered in 1812, Hamilton has an attractive 1200-acre campus that overlooks the Oriskany and Mohawk Valleys. The buildings are a mix of traditional and modern architecture with superb learning and recreational facilities and modern residence halls.
