Canisius College is a private college in Buffalo, New York, United States. One of 28 Jesuit institutions in the nation, Canisius offers 145 undergraduate majors and minors and more than 35 master’s and certificate programs. The college sponsors 20 NCAA Division 1 Athletic teams and is a member of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC). The college was founded in 1870 by members of the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) from Germany and is named after St. Peter Canisius. ==History== The Canisius College of Buffalo, commonly referred to as Canisius, has a long history in the city of Buffalo. The first campus was on Ellicott St. in the city, and was created in response to a growing need for higher education in the area. Buffalo was composed of many ethnic groups, and one of the larger populations was German in origin.〔Gerber, David. ''The Making of an American Pluralism: Buffalo, New York, 1825-60''.〕 As Europe experienced political turmoil, more and more people left for America especially after the failed revolutions of 1848. By 1866, Prussia had exerted considerable pressure on its Germanic neighbors which caused many more people to leave. One of the places where many Germans settled was Buffalo, NY.〔http://www.archivaria.com/〕 Part of the immigrant population included German Jesuits. The college formed with Canisius High School as a natural response to the needs of the Catholic community. The college archives has an extensive collection pertaining to the history of the college and its founding. After many years as an "academic department" of the College, in 1928 the high school section was granted its own charter and became a separate entity. Canisius College has three schools. They are the College of Arts and Sciences, the Wehle School of Business, and the School of Education and Human Services.
