HISTORY OF THE COLLEGESr. Theresa Maxis, I.H.M.Fr. Louis Florent Gillet, C.SS.R.The history of Marygrove does not begin with the year 1927or the city of Detroit, but with the year 1845 and the town ofMonroe. On November 10, 1845, three women made religiousvows at St. Mary Parish in Monroe, formally beginning areligious congregation known today as the Sisters, Servants ofthe Immaculate Heart of Mary, or IHMs.Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania followed this beginning, butthe Academy remained the center of innovation and progressin the IHM educational system.Marygrove is the direct descendant of the original St. MaryAcademy. By the beginning of the twentieth century, theAcademy had begun to offer college-level courses and by 1905,the Sisters had built a separate St. Mary College. In 1910, theState of Michigan empowered the college to grant degrees, andin 1914, the State Department of Education authorized it togrant teaching certificates. Those original charters are still ineffect at Marygrove today.One of the three, Sister Theresa Maxis, had been invitedto come to Monroe by a Redemptorist missionary priest,Father Louis Florent Gillet. Together, they are consideredthe co-founders of the IHM congregation.Theresa Maxis, a woman of color, was the first leader of thenew community. Of Haitian origin, she had formerly servedas president of the Oblate Sisters of Providence, a blackcommunity of Catholic women in Baltimore, Maryland.When she arrived in Monroe, she began almost immediatelyto develop a school for young women.OriginalSt. MaryAcademypostcard.On Christmas day, a notice appeared in the Monroe Advocateannouncing the opening of a “Young Ladies Academy” offeringa course of study that included French and English grammar,arithmetic, mythology, bookkeeping, needlework, beadwork,tapestry, worsted flowers, and music.MarygroveCollege isthe directdescendantof thisOn January 15, 1846, St. Mary Academy welcomed itsfirst students.

HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE(CONTINUED)of building a curriculum that would enable the professionaleducation of women, many of whom would be the first intheir families to obtain a college degree.In the early 1920s, it became apparent to the IHMCongregation and to Church leaders in Detroit that the collegewas outgrowing its buildings and that Detroit would be amore appropriate site for a new campus. Mother DomitillaDonohue agreed with Detroit’s bishop that moving the collegeto the city would give more women an opportunity for highereducation. They also believed that the college would have alarger field of influence in Detroit and that the college coulditself be a monument to the city of Detroit. Accordingly, inMarch 1922, Mother Domitilla purchased an 80-acrewooded tract in a developing area of northwest Detroitas the site of the new St. Mary College for a quarter of amillion dollars.The system of education that Dr. Derry devised—and the IHMfaculty shaped—derived from a theory of education based onthe liberal arts. An art, according to Dr. Derry, was the rightway of doing a thing. This philosophy came to be known togenerations of alumnae as The Marygrove Idea. It encouragedMarygrove women to develop personal power, to be drivingforces in their chosen fields, to act consciously on their ownvalues, and to be proficient in what Dr. Derry considered theseven liberal arts: The purchase price of the land, however, exhausted the moneythat had been set aside to build the new campus in Monroe.Undaunted, the Congregation launched a Building CampaignFund in 1923, culminating in a week-long Marygrove Festivalat the Arena Gardens in Detroit. With the help of the St. MaryAlumnae Association, Michigan parishes, graduates of IHMschools, and Detroit business leaders, the Festival alone raised 101,000. Still, the total campaign fund itself could not matchthe cost of the new buildings. So, in an act of courage, faith,or sheer bravado difficult to imagine today, Mother Domitillaand her governing council indebted the IHM Congregation forthe 4 million necessary to build and equip the college.The art of behavior before GodThe art of behavior within societyThe art of expressionThe art of reasoningThe art of historical realizationThe art of leisureThe art of making a livingThe test of a college, Dr. Derry believed, was what itsgraduates knew and could do.Certainly, one woman who embodied what the Marygrovewoman ought to be was Sister Honora Jack, IHM, presidentof the College for twenty-four years (from 1937-1961).Her history at Marygrove began in 1927 as the first Englishprofessor; later she served as dean of the College from1930-1937. Under her direction, the curriculum emphasizedspeaking and writing skills, critical thinking, and collaborativeand interdisciplinary learning. In what Sister Honora called asystem of “planned integration” and today’s educators woulddescribe as a series of synthesizing experiences, Marygrovestudents moved through a course of study that included afreshman orientation, a sophomore open-forum, and juniorsenior seminars. These classes required students to thoroughlyresearch and write a paper, present it orally, discuss it,and defend it in the company of students and faculty fromseveral disciplines.The new site suggested a new name, and in 1925, withthe laying of the cornerstone of the present Liberal ArtsBuilding, St. Mary College became Marygrove College.Two years later, in September 1927, the gates of the Detroitcampus opened, welcoming 287 students, 100 of whom weresophomores, juniors, or seniors.The first class of Marygrove students was greeted by thefirst lay president of a Catholic women’s college in the U.S.,Dr. George Hermann Derry (1927-1937). Dr. Derry, educatedat the Catholic University of Paris, was an educator, a scholar,a philosopher, and a lecturer with an international reputation.His experience included chairing the political sciencedepartment at Bryn Mawr and the philosophy department atMarquette University.So that Marygrove women would move naturally intowhat Sister Honora thought of as “the normal work-life ofthe world,” she inaugurated an academic requirement of“professional contacts.” Each department required its studentsto attend a certain number of professional meetings related totheir major field each semester.Dr. and Mrs. Derry lived with their three children in thepresident’s house on campus (now Hartman Hall), oftenentertaining intellectual figures of international importance.Dr. Derry frequently invited Marygrove undergraduates tomeet the guests as part of the students’ social and culturaldevelopment.Sister Honora’s educational vision was recognized in 1943when the Association of American Universities, an associationof graduate schools, placed Marygrove on the approved list.This was the highest possible rating for an undergraduateinstitution at the time. In 1947, the American Association ofUniversity Women accepted Marygrove as a corporate member.Mother Domitilla appointed Dr. Derry the first president ofthe new college because his philosophy of education matchedthe Congregation’s own vision of scholarly excellence, serviceto the professions, and commitment to social justice. Inparticular, the Congregation charged Dr. Derry with the taskMARYGROVE COURSE CATALOG 2018-2020 FOR THE MOST UPDATED INFORMATION, VISIT MARYGROVE.EDU–7–
HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE(CONTINUED)This program, begun in 1966, was the first to provide stategrant money to students who might not otherwise be ableto afford a private Michigan college.Student involvement in community service was also animportant educational value for Sister Honora, so importantthat she created the staff position of director of socialaction. The director’s chief function was to provide direction,counseling, and supervision of students
