:lr 'Zf ln 1948 the Monroe College became the Chicago College of Optometry with facilities located in the Lincoln Park area and clinics in the Loop and South side. It offered a 4- year program of pre-optometry and professional study with a fixed tuition of S640 per year. In 1955, because of administrative and financial difficulties a merger between NICO and CCO was formed, and the lllinois College of Optometry was born! Dr. Glenn Moore of NICO became the first chairman of the ICO Board of Trustees. Dr. E. Strawn of CCO became the first ICO president, and Dr. E. R. Tennant served as clinic director. One year later, Dr. Alfred A, Rosenbloom was appointed Dean and initiated an extensive institutional reorganization. His efforts resulted in a 4-year professional curriculum by 1967 with subsequent accredidation by the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary schools.
