New president praises Misericordia campus, people
By CHARLOT M. DENMON
Staff Writer
Dr. Pasquale “Pat” DiPasquale,
new president of College Miseri-
cordia, said last week that he has
been pleasantly surprised, not only
with the beauty of the college
campus but with the dedication
and commitment of the college
alumni and faculty.
“College Misericordia is appeal-
ing to me,” DiPasquale said. “It’s
Catholic with a liberal arts base
and is very similar to the previous
colleges where I have been presi-
dent. Although this is the first
college that is sponsored by a
congregation of sisters, the Relig-
ious Order of Sisters of Mercy.”
Serving as president of a Catho-
lic College is not new to DiPasquale.
He was the first lay president of
Assumption College in Worcester,
Massachusetts, from 1972 until
1977, then became the first lay
president in the 138-year history
of Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa.
After 10 years as president at Lo-
ras College, DiPasquale became
the first lay president of St. Tho-
mas University in Miami, Florida.
Prior to accepting the presidency
at Misericordia, he was acting as a
consultant to St. Thomas.
DiPasquale said he is especially
pleased with Misericordia's alumni,
who in his opinion is the embodi-
ment of the college. He has been to
several meetings and finds them
well organized and enthusiastic.
DiPasquale became president of
the college June 1, replacing Dr.
Joseph Fink, who resigned in
September, 1988, to take the posi-
tion as president at Domincan
College of San Rafael in San Fran-
cisco.
Executive vice president Dr.
Bruce Wilson served as acting
president from September until
June 1.
The new president said he is
pleased at the excellent organiza-
tion of the college but said he is
considering changes in planning

dia, sayshe has been impressed with the campus and its people

and budgeting.
In the future, DiPasquale said
he has plans to improve the physi-
cal plant by developing a sports
complex, new residence space, and
to continue to keep the campus as
attractive as it in now.
DiPasquale, who is 60 years-
old, has experience as an educator
and an administreator. He was
first alay missioner in Africa where
he met his wife, Charlotte, who
was also a lay missioner. They
were married in the United States
in 1961 and DiPasquale began
teaching at Seton Hill College in
Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He later
taught at the University of Oregon
and then at Illinois State Univer-
sity before accepting the position
at Assumption College.
DiPasquale received his doctor-
ate in English literature from the
University of Pittsburgh. He earned
his masters and bachelors degrees
as a Fulbright Scholar at Oxford
University, and also holds a degree
from the University of Notre Dame.
In 1987, the Notre Dame Club of
Dubuque presented him with the
Award of the Year. Assumption
College named a building in his
honor, the DiPasquale Media
Center, built during his presidency.
Dr. DiPasquale said enrollment
increased, a new sports center was
constructed and a computer cen-
ter begun while he was at Loras
College. During his tenure at St.
Thomas, he said the university's
law school was accredited, the
transition was made from Au-
gustinian sponsorship to sponsor-
ship by the Archdiocese of Miami
and a $1.75 million endowment
grant was received from Title III of
the federal government.
Dr. DiPasquale and his wife,
Charlotte, have devoted manyyears
to Catholic education and he said
they plan to give many more. They
like being part of the college at-
mosphere and have been very
committed to the college commu-
nity. They have also been very
involved in the community and
plan to do so here.
“We are now living at Lake Lou-
ise, but eventually will be residing
on Lake Street,” DiPasquale said.
“I plan to become involved in the
community in the near future."
DiPasquale and his wife have three
adult daughters.
