The semester is more than halfway through here on campus but there are still many great events happening. We hope to see you at one of them. Whether from across the country or just down the street, thanks for connecting and keeping in touch.

HF Chapter of Habitat for Humanity
The Holy Family Chapter of Habitat for Humanity has been busy!
A group of t wenty-seven students and three chaperones traveled from Holy Family to Spokane, WA this month to build new construction and renovate existing houses as part of Alternative Spring Break with Habitat for Humanity. Images, tweets and personal accounts of their trip can be viewed on their Storify page. We're so proud of our current students (and a few alumni!) for serving the community so well.
