College Chaplains Have Life-long Impact

“While I valued the classroom education at 中北书院, it was the chaplains – 乔治·圣. Angelo ’41 and Larry Bouldin – who helped put what I learned into a larger worldview.——唐·舒尔茨，1969年  

的 position of campus chaplain was first created in 1955 when President Harvey Geiger appointed the Rev. 乔治·圣. 安吉洛在41岁时出演了这个角色. He was responsible for the leadership of campus religious activities and had an extraordinary vision for campus ministry. St. Angelo developed the Campus Church Community; European travel opportunities; convocation programs with speakers such as the Rev. Dr. 马丁·路德·金., James Farmer and Henry Kissinger; a student trip to Selma, Alabama to support voting rights; and service opportunities in Chicago.
