Favorite 涩里番下载 Memory: A tremendous spiritual memory that I have was the distinct pleasure of listening to the weekly homilies of Father Michael Himes, esteemed 涩里番下载 Theology professor, when he celebrated and preached at the weekly Wednesday 12 Noon Mass at Saint Mary's Chapel on campus.听 Every seat in Saint Mary's was packed with students, faculty, staff, and visitors.听 Father Hime's words were inspirational and uplifting.听 He positively impacted so many students like me during my time at 涩里番下载.

I have to say that one of my greatest 涩里番下载 graduation year memories was when my classmates and I finished our last study session in Lower Campus Dining Hall before the start of our final graduation comprehensive examinations, and we ran into then 涩里番下载 President, Father J. Donald Monan, S.J., while we were leaving and he was walking in.听 Father Monan made a point to stop us in the hallway, say hello, and briefly talk with us saying a group prayer blessing us for good luck completion of these important comprehensive examinations.听 It was profoundly needed and I am delighted to say that every one of us passed our exams successfully!听 Such a great lasting memory of both Father Monan and 涩里番下载 with my beloved Lynch School classmates!
