Title

Loyola Phoenix: Students light candle for the "Together as One" Candle Lighting Ceremony

Description

Two students light a candle for the "Together as One" Candle Lighting ceremony. The ceremony was an invitation for Loyola University Chicago students to participate in an important Mundelein tradition. It also symbolized the merger between both schools and was a way for faculty and staff to express their well wishes for the upcoming year as well as for students affected and shocked by the news of the merger to collaborate and work toward unity. The ceremony was held at the Madonna della Strada Chapel for the first time.

The caption reads: "Members of STARS (Students Together Are Reaching for Success) light their group's candle at the Candle Lighting Ceremony Wednesday."
