Kirkland College was a small, private liberal arts women's college located in Clinton, New York, from 1965 to 1978. It was a female counterpart to Hamilton College, at that time all male, and its campus was adjacent to Hamilton's. It was named for Samuel Kirkland,[1] who founded the Hamilton-Oneida Academy, origen of Hamilton College (and for whom, some felt, Hamilton should have been named[2]). It was not successful financially, and Hamilton absorbed Kirkland on June 30, 1978, and now maintains its archives and financial endowment, and supports its alumnae community.[3]
