John Carroll, Founder of Georgetown University, Commemorated in Bronze at His Alma Mater This photograph, taken by Harris & Ewing in 1912, captures the unveiling of the bronze statue of John Carroll, the founder of Georgetown University, at the university's campus in Washington, D.C. Archbishop John Carroll, the first bishop and archbishop in the United States, established Georgetown University in 1789. The elaborate three-day ceremony to dedicate the statue took place on May 4, 1912. The statue was created by Jerome Connor, a renowned American sculptor, and was funded by Martha Ewing Newcombe and her husband, George W. Harris, who were significant benefactors of the university. The bronze figure of John Carroll, dressed in his episcopal robes, stands proudly against a backdrop of the university's historic buildings. The unveiling of the statue marked a significant moment in the history of Georgetown University, paying tribute to its founder and his enduring legacy in American education and Catholicism. The statue remains a cherished symbol of the university's heritage and continues to inspire generations of students and scholars.
