with an act of faith more than 170 years ago. On July 1, 1850, St. Mary’s School for Boys opened its doors to 14 primary students from Dayton. Known at various times as St. Mary’s School, St. Mary’s Institute and St. Mary’s College, the school assumed its
present identity in 1920. Today, the University of Dayton is recognized as a top-tier national research university rooted in the Catholic tradition.</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white;vertical-align:baseline"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Open Sans",sans-serif;color:black">The University Archives and Special Collections documents the history of the University as well as being the home to many special
collections of prominent alumni such as Congressman Charles Whalen and the humorist Erma Bombeck.
