Loyola University of Chicago. Rome Center of Liberal Arts.

The Loyola Rome Center for Liberal Arts was founded in 1962 by John Felice, who served as the first director from 1962 to 1973. Founded in 1962, the Rome Center of Loyola University Chicago began as the inspiration of John Felice, S.J., professor of Theology, who envisioned a Center of Humanistic Studies in Rome and brought 90 students to Rome in February of 1962 for a single semester of study. The first home of the Rome Center was the Centro Internazionale Viaggi Istruzione Studenti (CIVIS), loaned by the Italian government. At the end of the 1966 spring semester, the Rome Center moved to the Villa Tre Colli, where it stayed until 1972. From 1972 to 1979, the Rome Center was housed at Villa Maria Teresa, and in 1979 moved to its fourth location at Via Massimi. The Rome Center of Liberal Arts offers classes in Anthropology, Business, Classical Studies, Education, English, Fine Arts, History, Italian, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Theatre, Theology, International Studies, Peace Studies, Rome Studies, Sociology, and Law.
