A Newsletter for the Alumni, Parents, and Friends
of Immaculata University

Greetings From the Hill! 

 

The academic year is underway and our students have already made headlines. Current Immaculata University students, Chantel Morgan '16 and Danielle Palmisano '14, have been selected from among 300 entrants to exhibit at the International Textile and Apparel Association (ITAA) Design Exhibit.  The 2013 ITAA Annual Conference and Design Exhibit takes place October 15-18, in New Orleans. Read the press release for Chantel Morgan and Danielle Palmisano for more information on their accomplishments. Congratulations and best of luck to Chantel and Danielle!

 

On September 5th, Sister R. Patricia Fadden, IHM, Ed.D., President of Immaculata University, was joined by faculty, staff and administrators in welcoming the class of 2017 during the annual University Welcome. View photos from the event on the Immaculata University facebook page.

 
This week also brought with it the solemn reminder of the September 11th terrorist attacks on our country. The University community marked the 12th anniversary of this event with two prayer services; a prayer service was held at 9AM by the flagpole in front of Villa Maria Hall, and one in the lobby of Loyola Hall at 7:10PM. Veterans from the Norristown Catholic Veterans Post 1182 presented an American flag to Immaculata University at the earlier service, which was raised to half-staff.

 

In undergraduate Admissions, the department is beginning to travel and planning for upcoming on-campus events.

In addition, an Undergraduate Open House is scheduled for prospective students on Saturday, September 28th.
