A defining moment in the University’s history, it’s relocation from its humble beginnings on Lewis Avenue to the sprawling 100-acre Hillcrest Country Club property in Queens in 1955, was inspired by the vision and wisdom of former University treasurer Rev. Thomas J. McCallen, C.M.

The McCallen Society - named in his honor - serves to thank Gift Planning donors who include St. John’s in their estate plans. Members fulfill their philanthropic goals by securing a future for loved ones and providing much-needed funds to support facilities enhancement, scholarships, advanced technology and innovative academic initiatives at the University.
