Detroit Institute of Technology.
The Detroit Institute of Technology began in 1877 as part of the Detroit YMCA, at first offering night classes only, chiefly business classes to men in the area. In 1891, the school was known as the Young Men's Christian Association Institute. Five years later the school was incorporated as Detroit Technical Institute and 1918 was reorganized with the Colleges of Business Administration and Engineering, and the name changed to Detroit Institute of Technology. Women were first admitted to the school during World War II. The school closed in 1981.
