Background: Boston College, or B.C. for short,
is a major post-secondary educational institution located
partly in Newton and partly in Boston, Massachusetts. Despite
its name, Boston College is actually a fully accredited university,
not simply a college; this is probably to avoid confusion
with another Boston institution, Boston University. Boston
College is known for its programs in law and the arts &
sciences. As of 2002 the college had a faculty of 461 and
an enrollment of about 13,500 (4,600 of whom are graduate
students).
It was originally founded in Boston in 1863 as a Jesuit institution.
Boston College is one of the oldest Roman Catholic institutions
of higher education in the United States, one of 28 member
institutions of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities.
Although always a university, Boston College did not really
begin to markedly grow until the 1920s.
