Recognizing Excellence

1968-1985

"Action is thoughtless without knowledge and without action knowledge is barren."

St. Augustine
On 83 Diverse Questions, 58:2

As the 1960s came to an end, Villanova celebrated its 125th anniversary in 1967-1968. It also received national recognition for excellence. Beginning in 1985 U.S. News and World Report consistently rated Villanova as one of the top universities in the United States, while its graduates distinguished themselves in many walks of life. In 1985 Villanova's basketball team captured the nation's attention and electrified the campus when it won the NCAA championship.
