This charter remained in force until May i, 1784, when the Legislature at its first session after the adoption of the Constitution of the State of New York, passed an act entitled "An Act for granting certain privileges to the college hereto- fore called King's College, for altering the name and charter thereof, and erecting an university within this state." By the terms of this act the franchises and property of the Governors of King's College were vested in a corporation styled the Regents of the University of the State of New York, who were thereby empowered to appoint a president and professors and to make ordinances for the government of King's College, the name of which was changed to Columbia College, and of such other colleges as they should found, composing the University. This act was repealed by " An Act to institute an university within this state and for other purposes therein mentioned," which was passed April 13, 1787, largely through the efforts of Alexander Hamilton, then a member of the Legislature, and a Regent of the University. By the terms of the repeal- ing act the original charter granted to the Governors of King's College was amended, ratified and confirmed, and the franchises and property formerly enjoyed by the Governors of King's College were vested in the Trustees of Columbia College in the City of New York, who were named in the act and declared and constituted trustees of Columbia College, in perpetual succession, according to the true intent and mean- ing of said charter. On March 23, 1810, the original charter was further amended by the following act: CHARTURS An Act R]<;IvATive to Columbia Cohi^tct in the; City of Ne;w York Trustees named Proviso Powers of Trustees To appoint President Professors and tutors [Laws of 1810 — Chapter 85.] Whereas the trustees of Columbia College, in the city of New York, have represented, that sundry impediments to their trust, and to the interest of literature in the college, are found by experience from certain restrictions and defects in their charter, and have prayed relief, and that their charter, when amended, may be comprised in one act : Therefore, I.
