    THE FRENCH ROOM In 1936, Chairman Louis Celestin met with officials in the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, resulting in the decision that the French Room should be designed by a French architect in Paris as the gift of the French government. Jacques Carlu was selected to make the final drawings. M. Carlu chose the Empire period, with his inspiration coming from the Napoleonic campaigns and the rediscovery of the art of classical civilizations, with the color scheme of grey, blue and gold. Jacques Carlu had been a member of the faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Upon his return to France, he became director of the School of Architecture at Fontainebleau. To oversee the day-to-day activity, another French architect living in America, Paul Cret, one of the greatest authorities on French architecture at the time, worked with A. A. Klimcheck, University architect, and Gustav Ketterer, Philadelphia decorator, in the construction phase of the room. THE WALLS The wooden walls are painted with a translucent shade of grey known as French gray or grisaille. Luminous with a peculiar transparent quality, it was widely used in famous French interiors during the Empire Period. Slender pilasters are capped with delicately carved crowns, highlighted by gold leaf against a bronze background. Egyptian griffons and classical rosettes combine with Greek acanthus sprigs to accentuate the panel divisions. The paneling is designed to frame the black glass chalkboards. The display case contains a variety of objects d’art. THE FLOOR A highly polished parquet floor is laid in a pattern found in many of the rooms in the palace of Versailles.

  • Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh
    (Address delivered by the Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, c.s.c., President, University of Notre Dmne, at the 20oth Commencement of the University of Pittsbursii, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, May 10, 1987) m THE HEART OF THE CITY Happy 20oth Birthday! If I had to choose a text for my words today, I would take it from something your distinguished President wrote a year ago: "The University today is, of course, an incomparably different institution, in scale and complexity, than it was in all its phases since its founding 200 years ago. Yet a continuity of spirit connects our past, our present, and our future." I want to speak today about the University's past, present, and future, and the spirit, so difficult to capture in words, yet indispensable, as President Posvar has said, to any continuity, or unity, or challenge, or even understanding of the life of this University, past, present, and future. .. The past is easily enough captured by a few dates. Pitt began in 1787 as the "Pittsburgh Academy," a tiny school in the forest around the three rivers. It was to become the oldest American university West of the Allegheny. Pitt's development in the 19th and early 2oth century paralleled the great industrial development that occurred around the City of Pittsburgh. (I was personally a beneficiary of that development, since my father was manager of the Pittsburgh Plate Class Company in Syracuse, New York). - 2 Pitt became, in the early and mid-2oth century, a university of great intellectual and scientific development. The history of this period centers around three personalities who have left and are still leaving the.irmark upon this place.
