OUR THEME . . . This year St. Ignatius celebrates her seventy-fifth anniversary as a Jesuit high school serving Greater Cleveland, Cleveland youth, the Church, and God. This book as a whole salutes Ignatius's Present; but its opening section more especially salutes her past and the full, rounded development she offers Ignatians today, in her seventy-fifth year. On September 6, 1886, the doors of St. Ignatius College opened to the first seventy-six students to call themselves Ignatians. The original wooden frame building stood on the corner of Jersey Street, which is now West Thirtieth and Carroll—still the school's location. In 1888 the first wing of the old College was constructed, and only two years later growth already dictated the building of the second half of the building, resulting in the beloved and indestructible edifice which is still essentially the Ignatius to which 1140 Ignatians journey today by bus, rapid, car, and thumb for the Jesuit education they so loyally proclaim. From its beginning St. Ignatius has offered a course of studies based on the Jesuits' famed Ratio Studiorum, the pattern for all Jesuit schools throughout the world. At first St. Ignatius offered a course lasting seven, then eight years, based on the Latin and Greek Classics, English, ClovoUnd't tkyline at viewed from the »chool modern languages, history, sciences, and philosophy, comprising what today are both high school and college. In 1919 the high school and college divisions were separated, and in 1935 the college moved to University Heights, becoming John Carroll University, a title it had held since 1923. In 1945 St. Mary's grade school was appropriated for classes. In 1954 the school was sandblasted to a bright new look, and in 1955 the new gymnasium was built. Since then it has been entirely renovated inside, and further plans call for a new Science Building and cafeteria. This then is St. Ignatius in its seventy-fifth year—ever progressing, ever striving to realize its motto, For the Greater Glory of God. Underclassmen Sports Sponsors Index . . .
