As we move forward with this plan, few initiatives will be as crucial to its success as With Faith and Strength to Dare: The Campaign for Saint Joseph’s University. Earlier this fall, the campaign began in earnest with a weekend of events, including a spectacular gala to celebrate the progress made during the campaign’s silent phase and to anticipate the success going forward. A recap of this historic evening and more details of the campaign are conveyed in this magazine’s cover story. The campaign’s escalating momentum reinforces our goal of being recognized as the preeminent Catholic, comprehensive university in the Northeast. As the University’s first comprehensive campaign, With Faith and Strength to Dare is about fulfilling that vision as well as giving it meaning. Preeminence is about much more than being “bigger and better.” It is about offering the best possible living and learning experience, so we can provide to the world individuals who have critical thinking skills, intellectual curiosity and the moral discernment rooted in Christian values to create a caring and just society — to be men and women with and for others.

Alvernia University is reducing food waste by helping hungry students Alvernia University and its campus foodservice provider, Aladdin, are partnering to help students in need of hot meals while simultaneously reducing food waste. Aladdin is converting food shrink left over from Alvernia's dining hall — that's excess prepared food that never left the kitchen — into frozen meals students can reheat later. LECOM Health Opens Second COVID-19 Unit in Response to Surging Cases The new unit enables LECOM Health to expand post-acute care to COVID-19 patients and can accommodate up to 50 individuals. In March, a post-acute care unit at LECOM Nursing and Rehabilitation Center (LNR) opened in anticipation of a surge in coronavirus patients. As of Monday, that unit is near capacity, which led to the decision to open a second unit.
