Brown University History
Brown University was founded in the Baptist tradition as the College of Rhode Island in 1764. It was renamed in 1804 for Nicholas Brown, who gave a monetary gift to the school. While graduate studies, the medical school and coeducation were instituted early on, their structures were later revised to reflect changing educational goals and ideas.Brown University: Our History -
