A Message from the Alumni Association

Ìý

As Loyola graduates, we experience this as aÌýtimeÌýof reflection and anxious prayer – and as aÌýtimeÌýthat begs for action andÌýchange. Jesuit-educated, we recognize the events of the past weeks as a consequence of centuries of violence against African Americans.

We are reminded of the Jesuit principle ofÌýspecial concern for the oppressed. How can we bring this principle into our lives in a meaningful way at thisÌýtime?

We invite you to explore the resources below:

  • President Tetlow's recentÌýÌýto the campus community
  • The SGA President'sÌýÌýon recent events
  • The Jesuit Social Research Institute'sÌýÌýof articles and films about racism
  • Racial justiceÌýÌýfrom the Ignatian Solidarity Network
  • The Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities'ÌýÌýon racial violence

As a community of hope, Loyola University seeks solutions and paths for action. Please join us in making a commitment to work for racial justice.
