Making a Difference
Students like Megan Locicero put in some serious sweat equity to beautify West Seattle's Lincoln Park as part of a service-learning project. The students were among the 200 young people, representing the 28 Jesuit colleges and universities in the U.S., in Seattle for an SU-hosted national leadership conference. Over the course of five days participants not only gave back to the community but also attended educational workshops and lectures and a special Mass at the chapel.
