The Burnham Centennial Celebration
Welcome to the web page of DePaul University’s 1909 Burnham Plan Centennial Celebrations. Thank you to the DePaul faculty, staff and students who have already contributed to a successful program year, including this summer's Century in Motion Festival. We hope you'll join us on September 11, 2009 for a special Burnham Birthday Gala, where we'll recognize the many individuals who have played a role in DePaul's efforts to build upon the Burnham Plan of Chicago legacy.
“Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men’s blood and probably themselves will not be realized. Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will never die”
- Daniel Hudson Burnham
