Founded at Detroit, 1817, by an act of legislature establishing the "Catholepistemiad, or University of Michigan." Reverend John Monteith and Reverend Gabriel Richard were the entire faculty and the latter was one of its founders, vice-president, and professor of 6 of its 13 departments. It is remarkable as an important university of today founded by a Catholic but now non-sectarian. Its present location at Ann Arbor dates from 1837. See also, University of Michigan.
