Rutgers College was founded in 1776 as Queens College and renamed for Revolutionary war hero and benefactor Henry Rutgers in 1825; SAS, the direct descendant of this original liberal arts college, was created in 2007 by merging Douglass, Livingston, Rutgers, and University colleges into one school comprising students and faculty.
