Saint Mary-of-the-Woods Campus added to National Register of Historic Places

The Tribune Star of Terre Haute, Indiana reports in an article by David Hughes, "Woods District now listed on National Register of Historic Places," that the combined campus of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College and the Sisters of Providence, known as the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods District, has been added to the National Register of Historic Places.  Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College traces its founding to 1840 and a journey by Saint Mother Theodore Guerin and five other Sisters of Providence from their convent in Ruille-sur-Loir, France to the wilderness of Indiana.
