Foreword
The Boston College Fact Book is a summary of significant statistics gathered from various sources throughout the University.
Once again, we wish to extend sincere thanks and appreciation for the excellent cooperation and assistance received from these
many sources.
The purpose of the Fact Book is to produce a single-source publication and reference document that touches upon and integrates
all aspects of the institution’s people and its operations. The majority of the information is extracted from management reports
produced on a regular basis by the various source offices. When reviewing the figures presented we advise you always to note
the time frame referenced in the individual tables, and to contact responsible offices (noted at the bottom of each table) should
you have further questions.
With this 29th edition, we continue our efforts to produce a Fact Book that provides both current information and an historical
perspective. We welcome your comments and suggestions for additional information that might be included or improvements in
the way information is presented.

The Mission of Boston College
Strengthened by more than a century and a quarter of dedication to academic excellence, Boston College commits itself to the
highest standards of teaching and research in undergraduate, graduate and professional programs and to the pursuit of a just
society through its own accomplishments, the work of its faculty and staff, and the achievements of its graduates. It seeks both to
advance its place among the nation’s finest universities and to bring to the company of its distinguished peers and to contemporary society the richness of the Catholic intellectual ideal of a mutually illuminating relationship between religious faith and free
intellectual inquiry.
Boston College draws inspiration for its academic and societal mission from its distinctive religious tradition. As a Catholic and
Jesuit university, it is rooted in a world view that encounters God in all creation and through all human activity, especially in the
search for truth in every discipline, in the desire to learn, and in the call to live justly together. In this spirit, the University regards
the contribution of different religious traditions and value systems as essential to the fullness of its intellectual life and to the
continuous development of its distinctive intellectual heritage.
Boston College pursues this distinctive mission by serving
society in three ways:
• by fostering the rigorous intellectual development and
the religious, ethical and personal formation of its
undergraduate, graduate and professional students in
order to prepare them for citizenship, service and
leadership in a global society;
• by producing nationally and internationally significant
research that advances insight and understanding,
thereby both enriching culture and addressing important societal needs; and
• by committing itself to advance the dialogue between
religious belief and other formative elements of culture
through the intellectual inquiry, teaching and learning,
and the community life that form the University.
Boston College fulfills this mission with a deep concern for
all members of its community, with a recognition of the
important contribution a diverse student body, faculty and
staff can offer, with a firm commitment to academic freedom, and with a determination to exercise careful stewardship of its resources in pursuit of its academic goals.

Mission & History
A Brief History of Boston College
Boston College was founded by the Society of Jesus in 1863,
and is one of twenty-eight Jesuit colleges and universities in
the United States. With three teachers and twenty-two
students, the school opened its doors on September 5, 1864.
At the outset and for more than seven decades of its first
century, the college remained an exclusively liberal arts
institution with emphasis on the Greek and Latin classics,
English and modern languages and with more attention to
philosophy than to the physical or social sciences. Religion
of course had its place in the classroom as well as in the
nonacademic life of the college.
Originally located on Harrison Avenue in the South End of
Boston, where it shared quarters with the Boston College
High School, the College outgrew its urban setting toward
the end of its first fifty years. A new location was selected in
Chestnut Hill, then almost rural, and four parcels of land
were acquired in 1907. A design competition for the development of the campus was won by the firm of Maginnis and
Walsh, and ground was broken on June 19, 1909, for the
construction of Gasson Hall. It is located on the site of the
Lawrence farmhouse, in the center of the original tract of
land purchased by Father Gasson, and is built largely of
stone taken from the surrounding property.
Later purchases doubled the size of the property, with the
addition of the upper campus in 1941, and the lower campus
with the purchase of the Lawrence Basin and adjoining land
in 1949. In 1974 Boston College acquired Newton College of
the Sacred Heart, a mile-and-a-half from the main campus.
With fifteen buildings standing on forty acres, it is now the
site of the Boston College Law School and dormitories
housing over 800 students, primarily freshmen.
Though incorporated as a University since its beginning, it
was not until its second half-century that Boston College
began to fill out the dimensions of its University charter. The
Summer Session was inaugurated in 1924; the Graduate
School of Arts and Sciences in 1925; the Law School, 1929;
the Evening College, 1929; the Graduate School of Social
Work, 1936; the College of Business Administration, 1938.
The latter, along with its Graduate School established in
1957, is now known as The Wallace E. Carroll School of
Management. The Schools of Nursing and Education were
founded in 1947 and 1952, respectively. Weston Observatory, founded in 1928, was accepted as a Department of
Boston College in 1947, offering courses in geophysics and
geology.
The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences began programs
at the doctoral level in 1952. Now courses leading to the
doctorate are offered by twelve Arts and Sciences departments. The Schools of Education and Nursing, the Carroll
Graduate School of Management, and the Graduate School
of Social Work also offer doctoral programs.
In 1927 Boston College conferred one earned bachelor’s
degree and fifteen master’s degrees on women through the
Extension Division, the precursor of the Graduate School of
Arts and Sciences, the Evening College, and the Summer
Session. By 1970 all undergraduate programs had become
coeducational. Today women students comprise more than
half of the University’s enrollment.
In 1996 the Evening College became the College of Advancing Studies, offering a master’s degree as well as the
bachelor’s degree. The university’s longest presidency, 24
years, came to an end when Father J. Donald Monan
became chancellor and was succeeded in the presidency by
Father William P. Leahy.
In 1997, Father Leahy announced the implementation plan
for Advancing the Legacy, BC’s $260 million five year
investment to strengthen education, reaffirm its Jesuit and
Catholic mission, increase research and improve the quality
of student life.

1999 BC’s School of Education was named the Peter S. and
Carolyn A. Lynch School of Education in recognition of
the couple’s gift of more than $10 million. For the fifth
consecutive year, BC was ranked among the top 40
national universities by U.S. News & World Report.
The biggest leap in BC’s standing was “faculty
resources,” where BC moved up to 54th place from
87th place two years earlier. BC also ranked fifth in the
nation in graduating football players. The McMullen
Museum of Art’s exhibition, Saints and Sinners:
Caravaggio and the Baroque Image, attracted more
than 65,000 visitors to the campus. BC announced a
$400 million “Ever to Excel” capital campaign, with an
anonymous donor pledging $20 million.
2000 The annual U.S. News & World Report survey ranked
Boston College 38th among the nation’s 228 national
universities. BC, Notre Dame, and Georgetown were
the only Catholic universities in the top 40. BC was
ranked 5th for applications received by national private
universities for freshman admission. A booklet
providing a background of the Jesuit academic
experience was distributed to incoming students and
faculty members by the Center for Ignatian Spirituality.
Geoffrey and Rene Boisi committed $5 million to
establish the Center for Religion and American Public
Life, directed by social scientist Alan Wolfe. BC
appointed a husband and wife team to a joint position
for a single chair. Sheila Blair and Jonathon Bloom,
both art research scholars, will share the Norma Jean
Calderwood Chair in Islamic and Asian Art. The
Romance Languages and Literature Department
combined with the Carroll Graduate School of
Management to offer a new master’s degree
combining courses in management with instruction in
foreign language and culture, for those planning to
work in overseas positions and projects.

The Jesuit Community at Boston College
With nearly 130 members, the Jesuit Community at Boston College is
among the largest in the world and is certainly the largest in any
college or university. Forty-nine Jesuits work full-time at Boston
College, 31 on different faculties and18 in administrative positions.
One third of the community consists of Jesuits nominally retired from
academic work at Boston College, but many of these still teach and
work in administrative posts on a part-time basis. A number of Jesuits
in the community also offer Ignatian retreats and spiritual direction to
faculty, staff, and students. Also part of the community are some 25
Jesuits from 17 different countries who are studying for graduate
degrees at the University and several visiting scholars from other
institutions. The main community residence is St. Mary’s Hall, but
there are also six smaller communities around the perimeter of the
campus. Five Jesuits live in the residence halls. The Jesuits who staff
St. Ignatius Parish are also a part of the Boston College Jesuit
Community. For further details, including a list of courses taught by
Jesuits at Boston College, see the Jesuit Community web page at

This statistic includes estimated regular university scholarships and grants (through the operating budget), faculty kin tuition remission,
athletic grants, Jesuit Reduction, Alumni Association Scholarships, and endowed monies for scholarships.
2
State scholarship funds to students from Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Maine, New Hampshire;
Gilbert Grants; and Herter Scholarships.
3
Pell Grant eligibility is determined directly by the federal government.
4
These loan funds (formerly called “National Direct Student Loans”) are obtained by federal government contributions, Boston College
contributions, and collections of previous loans awarded.
5
This is a duplicated total since some students receive more than one type of aid.
*Important Note: The above data do not include Boston College student assistance for graduate and professional students
(approximately $16.33 million in tuition remission, grants, or scholarships and $15.47 million in stipends during 19992000) administered by the various schools and departments. Also excluded are the Nursing Loan Program ($267,450 during
1999-2000), a variety of grants and scholarships from fraternal organizations and clubs ($3,800,000 during 1999-2000),
and loans processed by the Financial Aid Office ($82,004,000 during 1999-2000) for undergraduate students, graduate
students, or their parents.

Special Library Services
New Library Information System
The Libraries migrated to a new Web based state of the art integrated
library system in June 2000. This new system is a flexible and open
system with transparent interface to other systems and databases which
allows for easy resource sharing capabilities. It provides expanded
access to the Libraries’ collections, databases, and services. The new
system provides a variety of methods for searching the Boston College
online catalog which includes books, periodicals, media materials,
microforms, newspapers, and links to electronic materials at
www.bc.edu/quest. QUEST can easily be searched from any Web
browser regardless of platform or location, 24 hours a day, seven days
a week. Users can interact with the system and receive immediate
feedback on the status of requests; they can place a hold, recall, or
request rush processing for a new book right from their desktop. Users
can also initiate and track requests for document delivery and interlibrary loan transactions, and may renew materials that are currently
charged to them. The Web interface and expanded cataloging
capabilities allow unprecedented access to over 183 Web accessible
databases, to full text journals, and to digital collections such as the
Liturgy and Life Collection of the John J. Burns Library.
Digital Resources
The Boston College Libraries offer access to hundreds of databases via
the Web and in CD-ROM format. A growing number of these databases
and journals provide full text access directly to the researcher’s
desktop. A complete listing of all online databases available through the
Libraries can be found by selecting Online Databases on the Resources
menu of the Libraries home page: www.bc.edu/libraries.html. The
database list includes groupings by subject and an alphabetical listing
by title. Many databases can be launched directly by clicking on the
web links. All other listings provide information explaining exactly
where to access the databases. These can usually be accessed in the
Electronic Information Center in the O’Neill Library or the Law Library.
Many of these resources are fully cataloged and you can link directly to
them from a record in the Boston College Libraries Catalog
(www.bc.edu/quest). Databases range in coverage from very
general to very specific and cover a wide range of research areas in the
humanities, social sciences, sciences, health sciences, business, law,
and public affairs. An expanding number of links to electronic journals
may also be found under the Resources menu by selecting the
Electronic Journals link.
Most databases available through the Boston College Libraries are
restricted to the Boston College community. In order to access these
databases from off campus, you need to log in as a verified Boston
College community member. This can be done in one of two ways:
using the modem pool (617-552-2790) or using the VPN (Virtual
Private Network) software which allows access to the Boston College
network and the Libraries’ databases using commercial Internet service
providers. For more information, check out the Computing and
Communications page: www.bc.edu/infotech.
The Libraries also support an expanding digital collection of special
and rare materials such as the Thomas P. O’Neill, Jr. Photographs, the
Liturgy and Life Artifacts collection and the Boston Gas Company
Photographs via the John J. Burns Library Rare Books and Special
Collections web page: www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/ulib/Burns/.
Librarians offer classes in how to search databases effectively, by
arrangement with professors, and also provide individual coaching at
various library service points or by appointment. Researchers who
cannot locate resources needed may contact a librarian to develop a
search strategy to locate relevant information. See the list of Subject
Bibliographers to know which librarian to contact:
www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/ulib/ref/subspec.html.
Interlibrary Loan
The Interlibrary Loan Service is offered to students, faculty, administrators, and staff to obtain materials not available in the Boston College
Libraries. Books, photocopies of journal articles, microfilm, theses, and
government documents may be borrowed from other libraries. Except
for unusual items, the waiting period is from one to four weeks. For
anyone willing to use the material at the holding library, a computerized system at the reference desk will provide locations. Requests can
be made by using electronic forms available on the Libraries’ web site
or by visiting a library.
Boston Library Consortium
The Boston College Libraries are part of the Boston Library Consortium, a group of area libraries which includes Brandeis University,
Boston University, Brown University, Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, Northeastern University, Tufts University, University of
Massachusetts System, Wellesley College, as well as the Massachusetts State Library, the Boston Public Library, and the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole. Faculty may apply for a Consortium
borrower’s card at the Reference Department in O’Neill Library in order
to borrow directly from the member libraries. Access to these
collections will be enhanced as the Consortium introduces its Virtual
Catalog in 2000/2001. The Virtual Catalog will allow searching of all
Consortium libraries with the ability to request delivery of books to
Boston College. Ask at O’Neill Reference for more information.
Association of Research Libraries
In October 2000, the Libraries became the 112th member of the
Association of Research Libraries. Membership in ARL is limited to
research institutions sharing common goals, interests, and needs. The
mission of ARL is to shape and influence forces affecting the future of
research libraries in the process of scholarly communication. Membership is by invitation upon the recommendation of the Board of
Directors and approval of the membership.
United States Government Publications
Boston College is one of 1,350 Federal Depository Libraries located
across the United States. As a Depository, the O’Neill Library receives
thousands of government documents in print, microfiche, and electronic formats, and makes them available to the general public. Many
government publications are now available via the Web or in CD-ROM
format. Further information may be found on the following web page:
www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/ulib/ref/govdocs/Govdocs.html.
Questions about the O’Neill collection and the availability of government documents should be directed to the Government Documents and
Microforms staff on the first floor of the O’Neill Library.
Media Center
The Media Center on the second floor of the O’Neill Library houses
information in many nonprint formats: videocassettes, DVDs,
laserdiscs, compact discs, audiocassettes, LPs, and CD-ROMs. All
media may be used by patrons within the Center in individual
carrels. Faculty may conduct media classes in either of our two
classrooms. There is a Faculty Preview Room for faculty meeting with
small groups or previewing media materials. Loans of videos are
restricted to BC faculty.
New England Library Information Network/OCLC
Through membership in the New England Library Information Network
(NELINET), our users have on-line access to publishing, cataloging,
and interlibrary loan location information from the data bank of OCLC,
Inc. which contains over 43 million bibliographic records from the
Library of Congress and other national libraries, and from over 27,000
other libraries worldwide.

John J. Burns Library of
Rare Books and Special Collections
The University’s special collections, including the
University’s Archives, are housed in the magnificently
appointed Honorable John J. Burns Library, located in the
Bapst Library Building, north entrance. These distinguished and varied collections speak eloquently of the
University’s commitment to the preservation and dissemination of human knowledge. The Burns Library is home to
more than one hundred thousand volumes, some twelve
million manuscripts, and important collections of architectural records, maps, art works, photographs, films, prints,
artifacts, and ephemera. These materials are housed in the
climate-controlled, secure environment of Burns either
because of their rarity or because of their importance as
part of a special collection. While treated with special care,
these resources are available for use at Burns to all qualified students, faculty, and researchers. Indeed, their use is
strongly encouraged, and visitors to Burns are always
welcome, either simply to browse or to make use of the
collections.
Though its collections cover virtually the entire spectrum of
human knowledge, the Burns Library has achieved international recognition in several specific areas of research, most
notably: Irish studies; British Catholic authors; Jesuitana;
fine print; Catholic liturgy and life in America, 1925-1975;
Boston history; Caribbeana; Balkan studies; and Congressional archives. It has also won acclaim for significant
holdings on nursing, detective fiction, Thomas Merton,
Japanese prints, Colonial and early Republic Protestantism,
and banking.
Some of the significant collections at Burns include:
The Aylesford Press Collection
Banking Archives: Hibernia Savings Bank, Union Warren, The
Provident Institution for Savings, the Yankee Bank for
Finance and Savings, and the Savings Banks Association
of Massachusetts

Academic Development Center
University Archives
The Academic Development Center (ADC) exists to support and
Archives are the official noncurrent papers and records of an
institution that are deemed worthy of preservation for their legal,
fiscal, or historical values. The University Archives, a department
within the John J. Burns Library, contains the office records and
documents of the various University offices, academic and
otherwise, copies of all University publications, including student
publications, movie footage of Boston College football, some
audiovisual materials, and tape recordings of the University
Lecture Series and other significant events. A significant
collection of photographs documents the pictorial history of
Boston College. Alumni, faculty, and Jesuit records are also
preserved. In addition, the Archives is the repository for the
documents of Newton College of the Sacred Heart (1946–1975);
the Jesuit Education Association (1934–1970); the Catholic
International Education Office (1952–1976); and the documents of
the Jesuit Community of Boston College (1863–

enhance all aspects of academic excellence by helping undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty improve learning
quality and teaching effectiveness. The ADC, which opened its
doors in September 1991, is located on the second floor of
O’Neill Library in the Eileen M. and John M. Connors, Jr.
Learning Center.
The ADC is a comprehensive, inclusive resource serving all of
the University’s students and faculty. To address the needs of
the great majority of Boston College students, the Center
provides tutoring for more than 60 courses, including calculus,
statistics, biology, chemistry, nursing, accounting, and classical
and foreign languages. In addition, graduate students in
English serve as writing tutors. (All ADC tutors are recommended and approved by their relevant academic departments;
most are graduate students, juniors, or seniors.)
The Center offers programs designed to challenge the most
academically talented, highest achieving students — as well as
programs designed to support those who are least prepared and
most academically challenged. One of the ADC’s three professional staff members assists students with learning disabilities,
helping to ensure their academic success at Boston College.
Tutoring, and all other academic support services, are free of
charge to all Boston College students and instructors.
The Center also sponsors seminars, workshops, and discussions
for faculty and graduate teaching fellows on strategies for
successful teaching and learning. Through these and other
activities, the Academic Development Center plays an increasingly important role in enhancing the quality of academic life at
Boston College.

The Language Laboratory
The Boston College Language Laboratory, serving all the language
departments, students of English as a foreign language, and the
Boston College community at large, is located in Lyons 313. In
addition to its 32 listening/recording stations and teacher console,
the facility includes: 15 networked Macintosh workstations, two
laser printers, a Web server, a materials development workstation,
two TV/video viewing rooms, two individual carrels for TV/video
viewing, and one CD listening station. The Lab’s audio and videotape/laserdisc collection, computer/multimedia software, other
audiovisual learning aids, and print materials including mono- and
bilingual dictionaries, as well as laboratory manuals for elementary
through advanced language courses, directly support and/or supplement the curriculum requirements in international language, literature, and music.
The Lab’s collection is designed to assist users in the acquisition and
maintenance of aural comprehension, oral and written proficiency,
and cultural awareness. Prominent among the Lab’s offerings that
directly address these goals are international news broadcasts and
other television programming available through the Boston College
cable television network and made accessible to lab users via
EagleNet connections and/or via videotaped off-air recordings.
These live or near-live broadcasts from around the world provide a
timely resource for linguistic and cultural information in a wide
variety of languages.
Students (undergraduate and graduate), faculty, and B.C. community members who wish to use the Language Laboratory facility and
its collection will find the Laboratory staff available during the day,
in the evening, and on weekends to assist them in the operation of
equipment and in the selection of appropriate materials for their
course-related or personal language needs. Digitized audio programs from the Lab’s collection are also available on the Boston
College network 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to students officially
enrolled in courses in which these programs have been adopted as
curricular material. For more information about the Language
Laboratory, please visit www.bc.edu/langlab.

The McMullen Museum of Art
The Charles S. and Isabella V. McMullen Museum of Art aims to increase understanding of the visual arts, to encourage
inquiry, and to enrich learning through the display of a notable permanent collection and special exhibitions of international
importance. The Museum occupies two floors of Devlin Hall. Spacious galleries with movable walls provide flexible exhibition
spaces that rival venues in larger museums.
Begun in the nineteenth century, the University’s permanent collection contains masterpieces that span the history of art
from Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Outstanding among them are Gothic and Baroque tapestries, Italian paintings of the
sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, American landscape paintings of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and
Japanese prints. The collection is displayed on a rotating basis in the Museum’s galleries on the ground floor. In keeping with
the teaching mission of a university museum, accompanying text explains the significance of each work in its historical
context and addresses questions from the current scholarship. The Museum maintains an active special exhibition program,
bringing outstanding works from around the world to Chestnut Hill. The Museum also contains a Micro Gallery, an innovative computer system which visitors to the Museum may use to display information and images of works in the permanent
collection, as well as photographs of related works. The Museum organizes public lectures, symposia, workshops, film series,
and gallery tours in concert with current exhibitions.

Information Technology
Information Technology manages Boston College’s computing, communications, and electronic information resources. It
provides leadership in shaping technology plans and strategies to support the mission and goals of the University. Boston
College’s campus technology environment is a highly integrated voice, data, and cable television network with high-speed
connections to all classrooms, offices, and residence hall rooms. The University’s three-year plan to implement wireless
technology was launched in 2000, with wireless service now available in most academic and administrative offices. The entire
campus will be blanketed with access points by the end of 2002. A Virtual Private Networking capability was introduced during
the summer of 2000 to enhance current off campus access to computing resources. And, in keeping with Information
Technology’s commitment to web-enabled services, the Tech Products Store was converted from a physical to a virtual store at
the end of the Fall semester. A new look and feel for the Boston College web sites was approved, and the Alumni Online site was
the first to be published using the new format. The Information Technology organization itself – about 140 strong — underwent
significant restructuring during 2000, in a move to support better the rapid implementation of applications and infrastructure.
Student Learning and Support Center
The Student Learning and Support Center (SLSC) brings together students, customer service, and technology. The SLSC,
located in O’Neill Library 250, is Boston College’s main computer laboratory. The facility holds 75 Macintosh G3s and 80 IBM
Pentium III computers, two color scanners, six networked email stations, two music stations, nine high speed laser printers, a
typewriter and six laptop docking stations. The SLSC is home to the Student Help Desk where students find assistance in solving
hardware, software, and networking problems. Within the facility, users have access to a wide variety of software applications and
full access to the internet. For more information about the SLSC, see its web page: http://www.bc.edu/slsc.

offers faculty and staff a resource to carry on the needed dialogue
between the values that constitute Boston College and the pluralism that
characterizes our contemporary culture. The Center initiates its own
programs, inviting faculty and staff to pursue a particular topic; gives
support to the Ignatian Society, a student group committed to integrating
Ignatian spirituality into the lives of its members and offering other
students opportunities to do the same; sponsors retreats and reflection
opportunities for faculty and staff; and has a wide range of national and
international commitments to other institutions in their efforts to integrate

Established in 1995 and housed in the Lynch School of Education,
the Center for International Higher Education (CIHE) is a research and
service agency providing information, publications and a sense of
community to colleges and universities worldwide. The main focus of the
Center is on academic institutions in the Jesuit tradition, but other
universities receive its publications and are part of an informal network.
There is a special concern with the needs of academic institutions in the
developing countries of the Third World.

Center for Nursing Research
The CNR's central purpose is to serve as an institutional resource
for faculty and students in the School of Nursing, the Boston College
community, and the greater Boston nursing and health care community.
Three interrelated but separate goals support the purpose of the CNR:
(1) to strengthen the research productivity of faculty in the School of
Nursing, (2) to increase intradisciplinary and interdisciplinary research
and scholarship, and (3) to communicate research findings to facilitate
research utilization in nursing practice and in educational settings. The
Center serves as a repository for the Cathy J. Malek Research Collection
as well as books and other materials related to quantitative and qualitative
research methods, data analysis, grant-seeking and grant-writing.

Center for Retirement Research
The Center for Retirement Research at Boston College was
established through a 5-year $5.25 million grant from the Social Security
Administration in 1998. The goals of the Center are to promote research
on retirement issues, to transmit new findings to the policy community
and the public, to help train new scholars, and to broaden access to
valuable data sources. The Center is the headquarters for researchers
and experts in affiliated institutions including MIT, Syracuse University,
the Brookings Institution, the Urban Institute, and the National Academy
of Social Insurance. The Center is structured around a research team of
interdisciplinary backgrounds in actuarial science, demography,
economics, economic history, finance, political science, sociology and
social work, and possesses a breadth of knowledge on retirement issues
and institutions virtually unmatched in the field. As the nation confronts
the myriad issues surrounding how best to ensure adequate retirement
income for an aging population, the Center's researchers and experts
explore possible policy changes related to Social Security, private
pensions, and other sources of retirement income.

Mathematics Institute
The Institute for Scientific Research (ISR) is engaged in scientific
analysis, mathematical modeling and image processing in heavenly
explorations--for example, interpreting changes in infrared emissions in
space--and in earthbound pursuits--such as designing a database to help
understand the behavior of financial markets. Using state-of-the-art
analytical tools and technology including computer-generated modeling,
the Institute is a forerunner in scientific data analysis and interpretation
using statistical data analysis, digital signal processing and image
processing; mathematical signal modeling; animated visualization of real
and simulated data; the manipulation and interpretation of scientific
images; and the design of specialized databases, data management
techniques and interactive scientific software.
Web Site: http://www.bc.edu/isr
The Boston College Mathematics Institute was established in 1957
as a unit separate from the Mathematics Department to assist in the effort
to improve the content and instructional practice of mathematics at school
level. In the 1960's and 1970's the primary focus of the Institute was on
providing veteran teachers with renewal programs and professional

Institute for the Study and Promotion of Race and Culture
(ISPRC)
The Institute for the Study and Promotion of Race and Culture
(ISPRC) was founded in 2000 at Boston College, under the direction of
Dr. Janet E. Helms, to promote the assets and address the societal
conflicts associated with race or culture in theory and research, mental
health practice, education, business, and society at large. The ISPRC
attempts to solicit, design, and disseminate effective interventions with a
pro-active, pragmatic focus. Each year the Institute will address a racial or

Irish Institute
The Irish Institute at Boston College was established by the
University in 1992 and utilizes cross-campus resources to create and
provide programs in areas such as business, government and education.
We believe that this mission--and the personal, educational, and corporate
exchanges it facilitates--serves to promote a more lasting peace on the
island of Ireland and can provide models for the delivery of good
government that can be applied to many regions around the world. The
Irish Institute currently offers programs in education, business management, and political leadership. In recent years, the Institute has applied
its programming models, and expertise with the problems confronting
divided societies, to embrace participants from the Middle East and North
Africa.

Jesuit Institute
The Jesuit Institute was established in 1988 to contribute towards
the response to the question of identity. The Institute, initially funded by
the Jesuit Community at Boston College, is not an additional or separate
academic program. It is rather a research institute which works in
cooperation with existing schools, programs and faculties, primarily but
not exclusively, at Boston College. Within an atmosphere of complete
academic freedom essential to a university, the Institute engages
positively in the intellectual exchange that constitutes the University. Its
overarching purpose is to foster research and collaborate interchange
upon those issues that emerge at the intersection of faith and culture.
Through its programs, the Institute does this in two ways: by supporting
the exploration of those religious and ethical questions raised by this
intersection and by supporting the presence of scholars committed to
these questions.

Boisi Center for Religion and American Public Life
The Center for Religion and American Public Life was founded to
bring together high quality research and scholarship on religion to bear
on issues of public policy in America. The Center's goal is not to advance
any ideological agenda, whether liberal or conservative. The Center
seeks instead to be the sponsor of dialogue and discussion which brings
together people whose primary concerns are religious with people
whose primary concerns are political, in the belief that they will find
common ground. The main goals of the Center include the promotion of
scholarship dealing with religion and public life, faculty and student
development at Boston College, and outreach activities that contribute to
a more robust public discussion of critical issues.
