bonwich Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 http://newsinfo.nd.edu/content.cfm?topicid=48 "Brief History: A Legendary Past "In fact, the early Notre Dame was a university in name only. It encompassed religious novitiates, preparatory and grade schools and a manual labor school, but its classical collegiate curriculum never attracted more than a dozen students a year in the early decades. "Based on the ratio studiorum used by the Jesuits at St. Louis University, this curriculum included four years of humanities, poetry, rhetoric and philosophy, plus offerings in French, German, Spanish and Italian and various forms of music and drawing."

Box and Won Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Who's your daddy, Domers! It's amazing that in spite of the fact that our school is significantly older than many of the country's top institutions (Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Johns Hopkins, Chicago, Rice, Stanford, Wash U., etc.) and that our curriculum was copied by schools like Notre Dame, we're not more highly regarded. The U. must have been poorly run for a long period of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
