John Henry Cardinal Newman and The Newman School
	John Henry Cardinal Newman        The Newman School was founded in 1945 by the late Dr. J. Harry Lynch and a group of colleagues, all alumni of Boston College. The founders named their school after Cardinal Newman, who converted to Catholicism in 1845, exactly 100 years prior to the start of the school. The Newman School has, since its beginnings, maintained its attachment to the work of Cardinal Newman, and his appreciation for the historical development of the Catholic intellectual perspective.
