Biographical / Historical
Marymount College is one of the founding institutions of Loyola Marymount University. Marymount College and Loyola University
were on similar yet separate trajectories in the early twentieth century, growing rapidly along with the city of Los Angeles
itself. In 1923, the Religious of Sacred Heart of Mary began teaching local young women. This school was first an elementary
school and then a high school. Ten years later Marymount Junior College opened in Westwood, which eventually expanded into
a four-year university that granted baccalaureate degrees in 1948. At this point, the school became known as Marymount College
of Los Angeles. In 1960, Marymount College moved its two-year and four-year programs to a new campus on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
Marymount College partnered with St. Joseph College of Orange, a four-year liberal arts college run by the Sisters of St.
Joseph of Orange, in 1967. One year later, Marymount College moved onto the Loyola University’s Westchester campus and two
schools affiliated in 1968. Marymount’s two-year and four-year programs separated with the two-year program remaining as a
separate institution on the Palos Verdes campus. Both Marymount and Loyola remained autonomous throughout the next five years,
maintaining their own separate administrations, registrars, admissions, presidents, and so on. These doubled efforts were
not sustainable and combining resources through a merger became a serious consideration. Marymount College and Loyola University
officially merged in 1973.
While there had been a long history of coeducation and integration on Loyola University dating to the 1930s with women enrolling
in night courses, this marks the beginning of a singular identity as Loyola Marymount University. The newly created university
reflected the mission of Catholic higher education, incorporating the traditions of its founding orders: the Religious of
the Sacred Heart of Mary, The Society of Jesus, and the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Orange. The LMU seal was designed to reflect
the Society of Jesus crest, the Religious Order of the Sacred Heart of Mary crest, a bear and star to represent California,
and three angels to symbolize Los Angeles. The affiliation and merger was complex, leaving students and faculty to navigate
how to share their campus, combine duplicate departments, and shape their new identity. The merger was mutually beneficial
to both schools and broadened the courses available to students with Marymount bringing strengths in communication and fine
arts to the campus.
