Fenwick, D.D., the first Bishop of CinciImati, opened what, after the fashion of the times, was called "a literary Institute" for the higher instruction of youth. This was a daring undertaking for the times, since the census of 1830 gave Cincinnati a population of less than 9l5,000, and of that number Catholics were a small and not very influential minority. The new institution bore the classic name, "The Athenaeum," and in the prospectus issued we are told that the "College course will embrace the Greek and Latin authors-both historians and poets-which are usually read; theHebrew, Spanish, French andEnglish languages; the various branches of the Mathematics; Reading, Writing, Geography and the use of the Globes." The carrying out of this fairly ambitious program was entrusted to the diocesan clergy from 1831 to the summer of 1840.
