Holy Cross' Second Annual Unity Week

April 8 - 16

"We want this week to be our chance to emphasize unity and peace on this campus. This will be our chance to celebrate who we are; our race, sex, sexual orientation, religion and lifestyle. This will be our chance to be proud of who we are; our chance to educate ourselves on who we are not. This will be our chance to set a precedent on campus for not being afraid to be who you are, no matter what you are. This will be our chance to be ourselves with each other - our chance to be proud of who we are. This will be our chance to grow."
