On July 13th, 1905, Rev. James Francis Green, O.S.A., the first religious superior for the Augustini- ans in the Midwest, was granted a charter by the Illinois State Legislature to build a college and a high school. After the charter was granted, ground was bro- ken in September of 1905, and Father Green, the school's first principal, laid the cornerstone in Octo- ber. Six months later, on April 22, 1906, the build- ing was finished and was called St. Rita College. The school was dedicated to St. Rita, a 15th Cen- tury nun who earned her reputation for heroic sanc- tity as a member of the second order of St. Augus- tine in Cascia, Italy. In September 1906 St. Rita, a combination school, parish church, and rectory, registered 14 students to its two-year business course and four- year college preparatory course. It was a two-story building with, a chapel on the first floor, and class- rooms and Augustinian living quarters on the sec- ond floor. --- . ..k,srA'A .
