O ' Donnell Center provides enriching Christian setting During the summer, the O ' Donnell Center pool offers recreation, above. Below, Arts sophomore Patty Moore tests her agility at juggling while tak- ing a break during a retreat. Creighton University acquired eight acres of wooded hillside in north Omaha in March of 1967. The acreage contains two ranch-style houses and an outdoor swimming pool. Acquisition of the property was made possible primarily through a gift from Lawrence O ' Donnell in honor of his mother, Mary, for whom the center was named. O ' Donnell was a 1927 graduate of Creighton. In making the gift, O ' Donnell had anticipated the facilities would be used for student retreats, but the use of the facilities has been diversified. Gradually, the idea of a University Center for enriching Creighton ' s Christian community and influencing Christian growth throughout Omaha took hold. The Mary J. O ' Donnell Center has been used for retreats by University and non-university groups, by Catholic and non-Catholic organiza- tions, conferences, short-courses and for social functions. The center is used frequently for Freshman Seminar group functions and floor or house parties for dorm students. Although Campus Ministry is nor- mally granted priority for use of the center, scheduling seems to be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Persons visiting the center, for re- treats or for social functions, can get away from the campus for a change of pace and change of atmosphere. The year 1976, was the first year the center ran in the black. The Rev. Jack Walsh, S.J., director of campus ministry, said. Two students are living at the center, maintaining the houses and the grounds. Sam Barton is in charge of maintenance.
