EIGHTIETH YEAR COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS WORCESTER, MASS. Conducted by the Fathers of the Society of Jesus. FOUNDED 1843. Historical Statement.—The College of the Holy Cross was founded in the year 1843, by the Rt. Rev. Benedict Joseph Fenwick, second Bishop of Boston, and is the oldest Catholic College in New England. It had long been a cherished desire of Bishop Fenwick to establish in his diocese, which then in- cluded the city of Worcester, an institution for the higher edu- cation of Catholic young men. In bringing about the realiza- tion of this desire, he was aided by the Rev. James Fitton, who had, as early as 1838, established the Seminary of Mt. St. James on the hill which now bears that name, but was then known as Pakachoag, "Hill of Pleasant Springs." This institution, with its sixty acres of land, Father Fitton presented to the Bishop in 1843, and on this site the distinguished prelate determined to build his college. He gave it the name of his cathedral, with the motto and emblem of the Boston diocese—a cross in the heavens, as it appeared to the Emperor Constantine, with its historic legend. The fact that the site was a gift was not the only considera- tion that influenced the Bishop in his selection. The healthful- ness of the location and the natural beauty of the surrounding scenery were controlling motives. The spot, too, was consid- ered at the time consecrated in local history. Near it the first humble wigwam church of Worcester had been erected by John Elliot for his Indians in 1674. The Fathers of the Society of Jesus, who had long been established in Maryland, were invited 10 HOLY CROSS COLLEGE BULLETIN to organize the courses of study according to the curriculum of their college at Georgetown, in the District of Columbia, and to take entire charge of the teaching.
