 Flanked by
JCU President Father Edward Glynn SJ and trustee Joseph Sullivan, Charles '52 and
Helen Dolan turned over the ceremonial shovels of dirt as John Carroll
broke ground yesterday for the $66.4 million Dolan Center for Science and
Technology, JCU's largest single project since completion of the original
University Heights campus in 1935. Thanks to the Dolans, who met in
a logic class at Carroll and went on to become pioneers in cable
television, the university received its largest single gift, $20 million,
from the Dolan Family Foundation. When completed in 2003, the Dolan
Center (shown above in a view from Fairmount Circle) will house the
departments of biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, mathematics and
computer science; the Center for Mathematics & Science Education,
Teaching and Technology (CM/SETT), which seeks the improvement of K-12 education in
northeastern Ohio; and theJohn Carroll Collaborative with Industry (JCCI), an
initiative to nurture science and technology-related start-ups.
