ACUNY, The Associated Colleges Of Upper New York: A Unique Response To An Emergency In Higher Education In The State Of New York is a book authored by Amy Margaret Gilbert that provides a comprehensive account of the establishment of the Associated Colleges of Upper New York (ACUNY). The book details the events that led to the creation of ACUNY, which was a response to an emergency in higher education in the state of New York. The author explores the challenges faced by small, private liberal arts colleges in the mid-twentieth century and how these institutions banded together to form a consortium that would allow them to share resources and survive in a rapidly changing educational landscape. The book also delves into the history of each of the colleges that make up ACUNY, including St. Lawrence University, Colgate University, Hamilton College, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, and Union College. Throughout the book, Gilbert highlights the unique characteristics of each institution and how they came together to form a successful partnership. The book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of higher education in the state of New York and the role of consortiums in supporting small colleges.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
