Finch College
Finch College was a baccalaureate women's college located in Manhattan, New York City, in the U.S. state of New York. It began as a secondary school and later evolved into a liberal arts college. Finch closed in 1976.
==Founding==
Finch was founded in 1900 as The Finch School by Jessica Finch (' Garretson, later Cosgrave; 1871–1949), an alumna of Barnard College and New York University as well as a prominent women's rights activist and Socialist.
Finch believed that the education she had received at Barnard College had not prepared her for a vocational life, so she decided to open a school that would put more focus on practical education. She developed a curriculum that was heavy on both the liberal arts and hands-on learning, with special emphasis on workshops and studio art lessons.
Showing her desire to mix the theoretical with the practical, Finch hired a very mixed faculty for the school. In addition to faculty members from nearby Columbia University, Finch hired actors, fashion designers, politicians, poets, musicians, and other individuals who were working in the New York City area at the time.
