History of Dorothy Day Center for Faith and Justice
Xavier University has demonstrated commitment to its Jesuit and Catholic heritage over the years. In 1981, Benjamin J. Urmston,
S.J. proposed through the Vice President for Student Affairs to then Xavier University President Robert Mulligan, S.J., that
the University have a department dedicated to faith and justice. He chose the name Peace and Justice Programs. In 1983, at
the request of Xavier students, Xavier President Charles Currie designated Dorothy Day House as the home of Peace and Justice
Programs and student clubs.
The Division of Religious Development, as the Center for Mission and Identity was originally called, was established by President
James E. Hoff, S.J. in March, 1992. Over the years the Center has had several different titles, including the Division of
Mission and Ministry and finally, the Center for Mission and Identity in 2009. The Division of Mission and Ministry sponsored
Campus Ministry, Peace & Justice Programs and Ignatian Programs.
In these photographic scrapbooks we see the activities that Campus Ministry has provided for students, including prayer and
reflection retreats, get-aways, and faith sharing groups. Peace and Justice Programs include activities which raise awareness
of social issues as well as sponsor lectures by local, national and international peace and justice specialists. Dorothy Day
House is home to a number of student clubs and organizations that are focused on issues of peace and justice, as is reflected
by the scrapbook collection.
Scope and Content
This collection consists of primarily photographic scrapbooks covering several Center for Faith and Justice and Campus Ministry
sponsored student activities from 1983 to 2004. The albums document Xavier University students taking part in various programs

ministry and Ft. Benning protests.
