Oh, and the campus moved from Midtown to [[Morningside Heights]] under his watch. Ironically, despite all that, no building on the [[Morningside Heights campus]] is named in his honor ([[Low Library]] is so named in memory of his father, Abiel Abbott Low.)

 While the move to Morningside Heights is Low's lasting legacy, equally important was his work to coordinate the activities and faculties of the numerous graduate schools that had been founded under [[Frederick A. P. Barnard|F. A. P. Barnard's]] watch into a well organized university. His people skills and deft touch earned him the name the "Great Harmonizer."
