A selective Catholic college fully funded by the Congregation of Holy Cross, Stone Hill College is located just east of Boston in the city of Easton. The college was founded as an all-men's catholic college in 1948, and the first class had 134 students. Originally, the college had just two buildings: a gym and a mansion, which housed seminarian students and priests. In 1949, a building was erected replete with classrooms and science labs. This was also the year in which The Summit newspaper published its first issue.
By 1951, Stone Hill College had fallen into debt, and this played a role in the administration’s decision to start allowing women to enroll. Further, many young men were fighting in the Korean War. Luice Moncey was the first woman to graduate from Stone Hill College.
