THE COLLEGE FORMERLY KNOWN AS CLARE
9/24/04 QCTIMES.COM CLINTON COLLEGE CHANGES NAMES AGAIN By Kay Luna Clinton, Iowa -- A Clinton university's name just got longer. The Franciscan University, formerly known as Mount St. Clare College, has expanded its name to The Franciscan University of the Plains. [Some] school officials said the change ...is designed to prevent confusion between the university and other similarly named institutions. [But] President Michael E. Kaelke declined to say what prompted the decision. "I'm legally bound not to talk about it," Kaelke said. "I can say that in the spirit of cooperative collegiality and cooperation, the added modifier to our name was made." |
