Tragedy and Togetherness in our Community

As we returned back from Thanksgiving break, we came together with a shared amount of sadness, as missing student Jenni-Lyn Watson was found dead near her home.  This tragedy has touched everyone on the Mercyhurst campus, for we are all truly a family.

Our term began with a prayer service for Jenni-Lyn to mourn the loss of a remarkable girl who was loved by her friends, family, and everyone who knew her.  This tragedy speaks to the love that exists on this campus, the wonderful people and support systems.

In this time, we're all praying for understanding and peace.

Classes began on Monday, and I look forward to giving you a glimpse of my new life in Winter Term.

Thoughtful in Times of new beginnings,
Paige
