  Bard College - Wikipedia
Bard College, founded in 1860, is a small, four-year liberal arts college located in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, on a 600 acre (2.4 km²) campus overlooking the Hudson River and Catskill Mountains.
It has developed several innovative graduate programs and research institutes, including the Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts, the Jerome Levy Economics Institute, the Center for Curatorial Studies and Art in Contemporary Culture, and the Bard Graduate Center in Manhattan.
X-Men writer Chris Claremont graduated from Bard, and named the character Jean Grey after a grave in the campus cemetery [this is not true since the character of Jean Grey was created by Stan Lee in 1961 or 1962, years before Claremont was involved in the X-Men].
