by Robert Means Thompson and initially designed by
New York architect Ernest Flagg. It is the final resting place of

under the stairs in Bancroft Hall.

Barbara Goyette, Vice President for Advancement at St. John’s
College, was a natural choice for the position when it was vacated
by Jeff Bishop in 2002. Herself a St. John’s graduate, she
understands “why someone would attend St. John’s and want to
support it later.” Patricia Dempsey talks with the American history
buff and Bob Dylan fan who is leading St. John’s into a new
Capital Campaign.
EVENTS: Maryland Day
On March 25, 1634, the Ark and the Dove landed at St. Clement’s
Island in what is now St. Mary’s County, Maryland, and the first
English settlers stepped onto the shore. They had departed from
the Isle of Wight on November 22, 1633 and had survived a long,
arduous journey across the Atlantic. We now celebrate March 25th
as Maryland Day and this year the celebration will occur in the
Historic District on Sunday, March 26.
