2 A Brief History
Sl. Mary's Hall (1917), Bapst Library (1928), Casson Hall (1913), and Devlin Hall (1924), circa 1937.
Boston CollegeA Brief HistoryBoston College was founded by the Society of Jesus in1863, and is one of twenty-eight Jesuit colleges a,iduniversities in the United States. \Vith three teachersand twenty-two students, the school opened its doorson September 5, 1864. While it remained a small liberal arts college, the t~lCulty was predominanLly Jesuit,but today's full-time faculty is comprised of 41 Jesuitsand 525 laymen and women. Part-time f~lculty positions are held by 21 Jesuits, in addition to 22 Jesuitmembers of the university administration.
Originally located on Harrison Avenue in the SouthEnd of Boston, where it shared quarters with the Boston College High School, the College outgrew its urban setting toward the end of its first fifty years. Ane\\, location was selected in Chestnut Hill, then almost Tural, and four parcels of land were acquired in1907. A design competition for the development ofthe campus was won by the finn of Maginnis andWalsh, and ground was broken on .I une 19, 1909, forthe construction of Casson Hall. It is lo<:ated on thesite of the Lawrence farmhouse, in the center of theoriginal tract of land purchased by Father Casson, andis built largely of stone taken from a quarry which oc·cupied part of the sites of Devlin, Higgins, and Cushing Halls. The foundations were blasted out of solidledge. Because of its historic value, Casson was completely restored in 1976 in order to preserve its familiar Gothic spires for future generations of studentsand alumni. .
Later purchases doubled the size of the property, withthe addition of the upper campus in 1941, and thelower campus with the purchase of the LawrenceBasin and adjoining land in 1949. In 1974 BostonCollege acquired Newton College of the Sacred Heart,a mile-and-a-half from the main campus. With fifteenhandsome Georgian buildings standing in a park-likeestate of forty acres, it is now the site of the BostonCollege Law School, as well as several academic departments, and dormitories housing over 800 students, primarily freshmen.
A Brief History 3
Though incorporated as a University since its beginning, it \,"'as not until its second half-century that Boston College began to fill out the dimensions of its University charter. The Summer Session was inauguratedin 1924; the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in1925; the Law School, 1929; the Evening College,1929; the Graduate School of Social Work, 1936; theCollege of Business Administration, 1938. The latter,along with its Graduate School established in 1957, isnow known as the School of Management. TheSchools of Nursing and Education were founded in1947 and 1952, respectively. Weston Observatory,founded in 1928, \vas accepted as a Department ofBoston College in 1947, offering courses in geophysicsand geology to graduate students.
In 1927 Boston College conferred one earned bachelor's degree and fifteen master's degrees on womenthrough the Extension Division, the precursor of theGraduate School of Arts and Sciences, the EveningCollege, and the Summer Session. Today's women students comprise 58 percent of the University's enrollment, and 42 percent of a total alumni body of over88,000.
Now the fourth largest private university in New England, with full- and part·time enrollment of over14,000, Boston College consists of eleven schools, colleges, and institutes offering thirteen degree programsand one certification program.

The Law School Library has access to LEXIS andWESTLAW as well as NEXIS and DIALOG. Access tosome of these files may be limited by contract to members of the Law School community.
Since September 1985, the Libraries have offered access to BRS After Dark, a system designed for use byindividuals who have little or no system or databaseexperience.

John A. "Snooks" Kelley(1907-1986)
A Boston College Tradition
It seemed only filling that on April 14, 1986 -theday that John A. "Snooks" Kelley's funeral Mass wascelebrated in St. Ignatius Church - demolition workbegan in earnest on McHugh Forum, for 29 years thehome of the Boston College ice hockey program.
"Snooks" Kelley, you see, was the father of that program. Not just the coach, or former player, or longtime observer; but the real "Father" to generations ofstudent-athletes, alumni, faculty, friends and fans ofthis long-successful Boston College sporl.
He was a hockey player himself in his undergraduatedays at Boston College (1924-28) - seasons whenpractice was held on frozen ponds, and only a handfulof schools had their own campus rinks.
"Snooks" took over as head coach of Boston College'shockey program in 1932, sharing that avocation withhis secondary school teaching position at CambridgeRindge and Latin School. He served as the Eagles'head coach from that time until 1942, and, after military service, from 1946 until 1972.
In that span, he coached 501 victories against 243 defeats and 15 lies. He was the first ever collegiate coachto record 500 career victories, and was dubbed "Deanof American Hockey Coaches" until his retirement.
Included among his many accomplishments in thoseyears were Boston College's only national sports championship (1949); eight New England championshipsand eight Beanpot crowns.
McHugh Forum itself was built during his eraopening its doors in 1958. It was a showcase of intercollegiate athletic facilities when completed, but like allthings temporal, is being replaced now by a moremodern and sparkling structure.
Even when his days behind the dasher were over,John A. Kelley continued to serve his beloved AlmaMater. For many years, he directed the University's
National Youth Sports Program, which gave recreational instruction and educational opportunities to
thousands of inner-city children; and he will always befondly remembered as Boston College's "Ambassadorof Good Will," greeting slUdents, parents, teachersand friends from his busy corner in the lobby of therink he so loved.
His spirit and warmth touched every corner of theBoston College community. President]' DonaldMonan, S.]. eloquently noted in his funeral eulogy:"While the record of John Kelley's accomplishments atBoston College is tangibly evident, his role in fashioning the spirit of the University is perhaps his most important contribution to his Alma Mater. To how manyyoung men and women did he give a sense of determination and initiative in developing their talents; asense of responsibility to the people they represent; acapacity to accept loss despite best efforts; a personalpride and confidence in their ability to succeed as peo-
pIe? John had the rare gift of helping students believein themselves because each of them meant so much tohim."
A lobby in the soon-to-be-constructed Sports Centerwill carry John "Snooks" Kelley's name as an introduction to generations of future Eagles. But to those tensof thousands of members of the Boston College "family" whose lives he had touched in his 60-year association with the University, a bronze wall plaque willnever be necessary.
