Anderson, his major adviser, and to the members of his dis­ sertation committee, Doctors Carl Candoli and Jack R. Frymier, for their invaluable counsel and assistance throughout this study. Special thanks are owed to the experts and to the many public schoolmen, diocesan superintendents, and religious who took time from their busy schedules to read and react to the model proposed in this study. He is especially indebted to Bishops Clarence G. Issenmann and Clarence E. Elwell, at whose request and under whose patronage he began the doctoral program; and to Msgr. Richard E. McHale, the Episcopal Vicar for Education, and Msgr. William N. Novicky, the Diocesan Super­ intendent of Schools, for their encouragement and support.. He wishes to acknowledge also the warm hospitality of the admin­ istration and faculty of the Pontifical College Josephinum during hiB years of residency in Columbus, and the thoughtfulness of his colleagues in Cleveland during the final months of the dissertation. He would be completely remiss if he failed to mention the many helpful tasks per­ formed by the professional and secretarial staffs of the Cleveland Dioc­ esan School Office, especially the generosity of Mrs. Dorothea Gambrill and Miss Lynne Keegan who devoted several Saturdays and even vacation time to the typing of the manuscript. Finally, to his parents and to his brother, he wishes to express his heartfelt thanks for their patience and understanding, their encour­ agement and support, in this endeavor— as in all others. iii VITA.

In fact, long before ecumenism was the vogue, some proponents of Catholic education were also very active in the establishment of non-sectarian and public schools. In 1784, for example, John Carroll--later the first Catholic bishop of the United States— served on the board of directors of St. John's College, a non-denominational institution in Annapolis.* Two years later, Carroll chaired a public meeting in Baltimore called to raise funds for a non- j sectarian academy for that city. In the territory of Michigan, from the time of his arrival there in 1798 until his death in 1832, Father Gabriel Richard worked closely with public officials to establish elementary and secondary schools. Though histories of the university frequently fail to mention them, Father Richard and the Catholic Indians of the Territory played a major part in the founding
