St. Mark's College is a Roman Catholic theological college affiliated to the University of British Columbia. It was founded in 1956 by the Congregation of St. Basil and is next to Corpus Christi College. Together they form one community as the president of Corpus Christi is also the principal of St. Mark's. The college is situated on the University Endowment Lands on West Point Grey and within its grounds is the local parish church, St. Mark's Chapel. ==History== In 1956, St Marks College was founded by the Congregation of St. Basil when it received its charter from the Parliament of British Columbia. The Basilian Fathers also founded the University of St. Michael's College in the University of Toronto and Assumption University in Windsor, Ontario. When St. Mark's was founded it was immediately affiliated with the University of British Columbia. The college, because it was next to Corpus Christi College and had St. Mark's Chapel within its grounds, became a centre for Catholics on the Vancouver campus of the university.〔(Parish History ) from St. Mark's Chapel, Vancouver retrieved 25 March 2014〕 While the Basilian Fathers supported college, Fr. Jim Hanrahan CSB (the longest serving principal of the college) taught in the university's Department of History. The south wing of St. Mark’s is named Hanrahan Hall after him.〔 In 1998, construction of St. Mark’s College was completed and the local Catholic parish moved there. The registrar of the college, Fr. Klosterman CSB also served as parish priest of the area.〔 In 2005, the Basilian fathers left the college and parish. The college appointed its first lay Principal, Dr. David Sylvester, that year.〔 On 15 October 2013, the principal of St. Mark's College, Mark Hagemoen was appointed as the bishop of the Diocese of Mackenzie-Fort Smith.〔 (Pope Appoints Corpus Christi President as Bishop ) from Corpus Christi College (Vancouver) retrieved 25 March 2014〕 On 16 June 2014, Dr Peter M.
