Dear Eagles,
As we head into fall, we kick off the season with C21's Espresso Your Faith Week, a week long celebration of faith and the gift of God in our lives. View a full schedule of events here and below.
If you are interested in a career in Tech, the Career Center is hosting a Tech Series starting with a Student Organization mixer on Tuesday. Additionally, connect with fellow students at the Office of Global Educations's picnic on Thursday.
To wrap up the week, we have Deans and Donuts, along with plenty of games to cheer on your fellow Eagles, including Men's and Women's Soccer, Volleyball, and the BC vs. Virginia Tech football game this Saturday.
Sincerely,
Dr. Corey Kelly,
Vice President for Student Affairs

The Communion with Creation retreat is a retreat for undergraduate students rooted in eco-spirituality and inspired by the Ignatian tradition of “Finding God in All Things. Hosted by the Agape Community in Hardwick, MA, the retreat invites participants to step away from daily routines and deepen their relationship with God, self, creation, and others through prayer, reflection, gardening, hiking, and other contemplative practices. Through these experiences, participants will be invited to reflect more deeply on their call to be peacemakers and stewards of creation.

- Each group will have 6-8 people
