Quinnipiac University is a private four-year university in Hamden, Connecticut, located on about 500 acres (2 km²), just north of New Haven. It was renamed Quinnipiac College in 1951, in honor of the Quinnipiack Indian tribe who inhabited the Greater New Haven area during the 17th-19th centuries. In 1952 Quinnipiac assumed administrative control of Larson College, a private women’s college (the Georgian-style building formerly occupied by Larson College is now an assisted living facility ). In 1995, the American Bar Association fully accredited Quinnipiac to award the Juris Doctor degree through the Quinnipiac University School of Law and the Quinnipiac School of Law Center was dedicated later that year. As of July 2000 the school changed its name again to Quinnipiac University. Also in 2000, Quinnipiac University received national accreditation by AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). It is the new home of Quinnipiac’s basketball and ice hockey teams. The Albert Schweitzer Institute, founded in 1984, became affiliated with Quinnipiac University in 2002. The Polling Institute receives national recognition for its independent surveys of residents in Connecticut, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and nationwide.
