Rutgers College is one Of the Oldest IN this
part Of the country The gerrninaI thought out
Of which it grew has been imputed to Theodore
James Frelinghuysen first Of that name in
American annals. Associated with him IN his
effort to found a college in the spring Of 1888
was Hendrix Fisher. The effort was unsuccess-
ful. A second movement was led by Theodore
FreIinghuysen, a pastor in Albany and son of
the first named. In January, 1850 he urged the
formation of a college. to be nurtured by the
Dutch Church, but American in nature. Oppo-
sition arose. but the friends OF an independent
college persisted, and petitions were from time
to time sent to the Royal Governor, praying for
a college charter. The petition was finally
granted. and the Charter Of Queens College so
named in honor Of the royal consort. Charlotte.
was received on November 10, 1865. under which
the trustees met and organized
on November 81. 1859. On petition Of Hendrix
Fisher president OF the Board Of Trustees OF
Queens College, tie Governor and council voted
TO amend the charter, and on March 20 no
"a charter was granted which changed apparently
