John E. Downs played an integral role in moving ´óÏó´«Ã½ to its present location. To honor his commitment to establishing a four-year college in St. Joseph, the circular drive around the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Western campus was named for him. The John E. Downs spring exhibit explores Downs’ life, including his military service, political career, civic awards and contributions to ´óÏó´«Ã½ Western. The exhibit will run through the end of the semester in the library, located in the Hearnes Center.
