  • Long Island University
    Chapter One Long Island University Beginnings, Bankruptcy, and Bad Decisions The university has continued to exist in limbo, teetering between tragedy and comedy. —Elliott Gatner, 1974 From Beginnings to Bankruptcy, 1926–1946 Soon after Southampton College closed in 2004, the State University of New York at Stony Brook took over Southampton’s nationally recognized Marine Science program and began negotiations to purchase the campus. There was a general consensus that it would be in the best interests of all parties for the state to establish a four‑year center at Southampton. There is some small irony in this because Long Island University (LIU) was founded in the midst of a controversy between those who advocated a publicly sup‑ ported university and those who wanted a private institution in Brooklyn. The borough had been growing steadily following World War I and the number of young people who wanted a college education was rising even faster (Clark, Leslie, and O’Brien 2010, 16–17). Some advocates argued that the college should be an extension of the City College (CCNY) rather than a private institution (Gatner 1974, 49). CCNY, founded in 1847, had expanded rapidly by the 1930s, but it was having financial difficulties and had begun raising admissions standards to limit enrollment. For public insti‑ tutions, in contrast to private colleges that were ever seeking prospective students, additional students led to increased costs. Students from Brooklyn made up more than one‑third of the City Col‑ lege enrollment in 1923, but Brooklyn residents wanted an independent branch established in their own borough.
