Over the past year, the Loyola Campus Working Group has been meeting with students, staff and faculty on the needs for services and suggestions to foster a greater sense of community at Loyola.
Six themes emerged from the discussion with members of the Loyola community: transportation, food, facilities, communications, student services and community-building.
On March 11, 2020, the Loyola Campus Working Group hosted a consultation event with 64 stakeholders from across the university to help finalize our set of recommendations.
We are now at the final stage of our process: our report to enhance the services and identity of the Loyola campus will be presented to the President’s Executive Group in the coming weeks.
We welcome any final feedback that you may have!
