PREFACE
The Fairfield University FACT BOOK, in its 32nd year of production, is dedicated to serving the
fiequent information needs and interests of administration, faculty and alumni. This publication
attempts to offer concise, consistent, an& relevant information on principal characteristics and
strengths of Fairfield University.
This year's University Fact Book continues to be a streamlined edition As a result, you will not see
historical data for every year. Rather the data is offered in 5-year increments until 1990 and then
every year forward. Should you need information on all years, please refer to the 2000 Fact Book.
Copies are still available in the Officeof ManagementInformation (CNS 300).
I would like to thank the many offices who assisted me with the development of the idonnation
included in this issue: Alumni, Campus Operations, Development Services, Finance, Human
Resources, Library, Media Center, Printing and Graphics and the University Registrar. The
University Fact Book would not be possible if it were not for the assistance of Sharon Kelly, my
secretary, who is responsible for the data editing and formatting of this project. A special thank you
is given to Laura Johnson, our web master, for her assistance in getting this publication on the
As you utilize this issue of the University Fact Book, you are encouraged to offer suggestions
for improvements for future issues.
