Let $G$ be an arbitrary group such that $G/\Z(G)$ is finite, where $\Z(G)$ denotes the center of the group $G$. Then $\gamma_2(G)$, the commutator subgroup of $G$, is finite. This result is known as Shur's theorem. The motive of this short note is to provide a quick survey on the converse of Schur's theorem and to give some further remarks. Let $\Z_2(G)$ denote the second center of a group $G$. Then we point out that a converse of Schur's theorem can be formutlated as follows: If $\gamma_2(G)$ is finite and $\Z_2(G)/\Z(G)$ is finitely generated, then $G/\Z(G)$ is finite. Moreover, $G$ is isoclinic (in the sense of P. Hall) to a finite group.
