Mount Saint Mary College is a private, co-instructive, four-year human sciences school, situated in Newburgh in the mid-Hudson Valley locale of New York State. It was established in 1960 by the Dominican Sisters.
The grounds neglects the Hudson River, somewhere between New York City and Albany. More than 2,700 men and ladies are selected in more than 50 undergrad projects and 3 graduate degree programs. The Knights contend in NCAA Division III sports in the Skyline Conference.
In the previous decade, the school has experienced colossal development to stay aware of enlistment. In 2009, the Mount devoted the new Kaplan Family Mathematics, Science and Technology Center, which houses a Nursing Learning Resource Center and cutting edge science research facilities, learning spaces and hardware. In 2010, the school opened its new all-season turf athletic fields and six new tennis courts. The new Aquinas Hall eating house, called "The View," opened.
Four German-talking sisters of St. Dominic initially touched base in New York City in 1853. They cleared out the security of their religious circle of the Holy Cross in Regensburg, Germany to begin a school in Pennsylvania. Arrangements went astray and the sisters opened a school on Second Street in lower Manhattan. After thirty years, in 1883 at the solicitation of the minister of St. Mary's Church in Newburgh, a little gathering of sisters from the Second Street Convent opened Mount Saint Mary Academy off Gidney Avenue on property that had once had a place with the prosperous Harvey Weed gang.
The new Academy, called Greater Mount Saint Mary, opened in 1927 and served as a secondary school. A storage facility was remade as the Casa San Jose and it served as the primary school.
