Boston College


Boston College was established by the Society of Jesus in 1863 and, with three instructors and 22 understudies, opened its entryways on September 5, 1864. Through its initial seven decades, it remained a little undergrad establishment, offering the children of the Irish regular workers a thorough course stack in religious philosophy and reasoning, traditional dialects, talk, math and science.

Initially situated on Harrison Avenue in Boston's South End, the College exceeded its urban setting right on time in the twentieth century and moved to the previous Lawrence Farm in Chestnut Hill, where ground was broken on June 19, 1909, for the development of a focal Recitation Building, later named Gasson Hall to pay tribute to President Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., who drove the movement. The Recitation Building opened in March 1913. The three different structures that still shape the center of the grounds - St. Mary's Hall, Devlin Hall, and Bapst Library- - opened in 1917, 1924, and 1928, individually.
