The College held this year’s winter convocation on Feb. 3 in St. Joseph Memorial Chapel.

Made possible by a grant from the Lilly Endowment, the convocation focused on the question, “What are our obligations to one another?” and featured songs, personal stories and prayers. The event included a dinner in the Hogan Campus Center Ballroom, during which time participants discussed questions generated by the program.

Speakers at the convocation included: Bill Gibbons, head coach for women’s basketball; Sandra Shook, secretary for the study abroad program; Vantrice Taylor ’04; Daniel Ragheb ’05; Nicole Mortorano ’04; Osvaldo Golijov, associate professor in the music department; William Breault of the building services department; and Joanne Glavin McClatchy ’79, executive director of the Nativity School of Worcester. The program concluded with a musical performance by the 24 students of the Nativity School.
