On June 7, 1957—60 years ago—the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County officially granted a charter to (then) Cabrini College, which was the final step in the long process for Cabrini to become an institution of higher education.
To commemorate this Founding Day—Cabrini’s Birthday—Dr. Donald Taylor and the President’s Office invited the campus community to an ice cream social, where anecdotal notes on Cabrini’s academic history were presented and all in attendance sang Happy Birthday to Cabrini University. Sr. Grace Waters, MSC, did the ceremonial honors of cutting the cake.
