Paul Smith's College
Paul Smith's College is a private college located in Paul Smiths, N.Y. It is the only four-year institution of higher education within the Adirondack Park. Paul Smith's offers both two- and four-year programs in many fields, including natural resources, fisheries and wildlife science, forestry, recreation, biology, hotel and restaurant management, culinary arts and business.
==History==
Paul Smith's College was founded through a bequest of Phelps Smith, son of Apollos Smith, whose Paul Smith's Hotel was a famous 19th century establishment. The first class was matriculated in 1946, and was loosely based on the original hotel's business model. Paul Smith's College specializes in natural sciences, hotel management and culinary arts. Along with the money to start a school, Phelps also left more than 20,000 acres (80 km²) of land. Paul Smith's is located northwest of Saranac Lake, N.Y., in the hamlet of Paul Smiths in the Town of Brighton.
In 2015 Joan Weill, wife of financier and philanthropist Sanford I. Weill, offered $20 million to Paul Smith's College, but only if it changed its name to Joan Weill-Paul Smith's College, a change that would have violated the terms of the devise of the school's real property, which required that the school be "forever known" as Paul Smith's College of Arts and Sciences. Paul Smith's applied to the New York Supreme Court for a release from the naming clause of the original donor's will, arguing that its continued financial survival depended on receipt of Mrs. Weill's gift. Justice John T. Ellis ruled that the college could not be renamed, and because her gift was contingent upon the renaming, Weill did not plan to make the contribution.
