Founding of King's College

The Rev. Dr. Samuel Johnson, first president of King's College

The period leading up to the school's founding was marked by controversy, with various groups competing to determine its location and religious affiliation. Advocates of New York City met with success on the first point, while the Church of England prevailed on the latter. However, all constituencies agreed to commit themselves to principles of religious liberty in establishing the policies of the College.^[1]

Although Dutch New Amsterdam and the entire island of Manhattan had officially been ceded to the Kingdom of Great Britain in February 1674 with the Treaty of Westminster, no serious discussions as to the founding of a university in the renamed Province of New York began until the early eighteenth-century. This delay is often attributed to the multitude of languages and religions practiced in the province, which made the founding of a seat of learning difficult because Colleges during the colonial period were regarded as a religious, no less a scientific and literary institution. Agreements stipulated in the Anglo-Dutch Westminster Treaty on how the transition to British rule would be enacted also contributed to the impasse. The Articles of Capitulation guaranteed certain rights to Dutch colonists; among these were: liberty of conscience in divine worship and church discipline, the continuation of their own customs concerning inheritances, and the application of Dutch law (not English Common Law) to contracts made prior to 1674.^[2]
