There are definitely a number of homeless people in the neighborhoods surrounding Loyola, but I worry that the state of the economy could turn it into an epidemic. It is great to see Loyola students getting involved in the neighborhood around the school, I will definitely check out their blog. Thanks! I live in Chicago, just south of Loyola in Uptown.

Mosaic is a Loyola University Chicago student publication dedicated to social justice issues. The 2009 edition explores homeless issues in Chicago. The magazine is filled with student-written profiles and trend stories, each reflecting some facet of homelessness, from first-person accounts from those in need, to the perspectives of social service agencies working to comfort and assist the homeless. Mosaic was produced by students in Loyola’s School of Communication. The students were part of Loyola’s Engaged Scholars Program, and their community partner was StreetWise, the Chicago publication produced and sold by homeless vendors. StreetWise editors and vendors were guest lecturers and assisted students in understanding homeless issues and how to best cover them. This year’s edition marks the 6th anniversary of Mosaic. Since 2003, students in the School of Communication have been responsible for the magazine’s annual publication, reporting, writing and editing the stories, taking the photographs, completing the design and layout, even selling advertisements to pay for the cost of publication. Mosaic represents the finest elements of Jesuit scholarship, combining education and reflection on social justice issues with experiential learning and community involvement. The School of Communication realizes that it’s important to train today’s young journalists to tell a story for a variety of mediums. Thus, Mosaic isn’t just a print publication. The Web site, luc.edu/orgs/mosaic2009, is filled with dozens of articles and a blog where students reflect on the issue of homelessness.

The stress and worry of what to do and where to go once the house is gone, coupled with the embarrassment of foreclosure, are hard enough to send anyone into a panic. Screams have gone out in the deep of night dedicated to the horrors of foreclosure and its stigma of failure. The situation is made worse by those who prey upon the weak, the defeated.
