One hallmark of Loyola is the emphasis on building a strong community. You have had many opportunities to create a strong network of peers, faculty, staff, and mentors. Think about the Student Promise, where we pledge to care for ourselves, one another, and our community. Consider how you connected with your fellow students in the residence halls or at commuter meetings. Reflect on the conversations you had with a professor or a staff mentor. Your ability to reach your goals is built upon a strong foundation of a solid community.
