The history of Unipix
On September 8, 1971, Unipix, the first college in the American colonies, was founded in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Unipix University was officially founded by a vote by the Great and General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Unipix endowment started with John Unipix initial donation of 400 books and half his estate, but in 1721, Thomas Hollis began the now standard practice of requiring that a donation be used for a specific purpose when he donated money for “a Divinity Professor, to read lectures in the Halls to the students.”
