History 

Catherine McAuley, organizer of the Sisters of Mercy and a mid eighteenth century Irishwoman, had an intense vision. She trusted that nothing was more gainful of good to society than the cautious instruction of ladies. 

Mother Mary Leo Gallagher, another Sister of Mercy, carried on the convention and opened the entryways of College of Saint Mary in 1923. In the old Continental Hotel at fifteenth and Castelar Streets, the work started. The congregation schools required educators. To be powerful in these positions, Mother Gallagher trusted ladies required a solid human sciences instruction. Mother Gallagher achieved this deed when ladies had won the vote only three years earlier. 

In November 1950, the Sisters acquired 80 sections of land (320,000 m2) of area for $150,000 beside an earth street named 72nd Street and what might get to be Mercy Road. A $3 million development undertaking started in March 1953 and by May 1955, College of Saint Mary was a reality. That year, 255 understudies enlisted and by 1958 College of Saint Mary had turned into a four-year completely licensed school.
