Biographical History
Friends World College was conceived as a co-educational, degree-granting liberal arts college combining a residence program with the opportunity for foreign travel and study. Planned as a "college without walls," it was sponsored by the New York Yearly Meeting and opened in September 1965. It was merged into Long Island University in 1991. Mary Cushing Niles (1900-1993), a management consultant, was a founding trustee of Friends World College and served as a member of its board from 1965-1992. She was deeply involved with many aspects of its management. In particular, she played an integral role in developing the Southeast Asian program through numerous trips to India and around the region, establishing contacts and aiding in the development of the centers in India and Japan.
