Title	Notre Dame College Class of 1925 Graduation Photograph
Subject	Ohio Women Religion in Ohio Education Universities and colleges Catholic Church Church colleges Students Graduation ceremonies Teachers
Place	South Euclid (Ohio) Cuyahoga County (Ohio)
Description	This photograph shows the first five women to graduate from the Teacher Training Department at Notre Dame College in 1925. Standing (left to right) are Kathleen Foster, Josephine Ogrin, and Kathryn Poelking. Seated (left to right) are Estelle Weist and Helen Maher. After graduation, Foster taught second and third graders at St. Andrew and St. Wendelin schools. Ogrin taught fourth graders at St. Andrew's and later returned to Notre Dame College to complete her bachelor's degree, graduating in 1927. Poelking taught third graders at St. George's School for several years and then accepted a position at the Mutual Building and Investment Company in Cleveland. Weist was captain of the 1923 varsity basketball team at Notre Dame College. After receiving her certificate she taught at St. George's School. Maher later taught second graders at St. Cyril and Methodius School in Lakewood. The photograph measures 7.25" x 9.75" (18.42 x 24.77 cm). The Sisters of Notre Dame established Notre Dame College in 1922 in Cleveland, Ohio. Founded as a private, Catholic, liberal arts college for women, Notre Dame College opened on September 18, 1922 on the campus of Notre Dame Academy on Ansel Road. As the college grew, it became necessary to build a separate campus. Land east of Cleveland in South Euclid was prepared for the new college site, and the first building opened in September 1928. In 1978, the Weekend College (WECO), an outgrowth of Lifelong Learning, was established for women older than age 25 who wished to pursue degrees in four years on alternating weekends. In 1992, the M. Ed. degree was designed for "master teachers." In 2001, Notre Dame opened attendance to men. The college's motto is "changing the world, one student at a time."
