It’s been a busy couple of weeks at Loyola. We opened our awesome new Damen Student Center and started construction to revamp our on student gym, Halas. But perhaps the busiest office on campus was the Athletics. They did two majors things over the past week. First, they hired a new women’s basketball coach, Sheryl [...]

Words on Admission
Hello, my name is Alex and I'm an Admission Counselor here at Loyola. I'm a Loyola grad myself, and I'm proud to continue my relationship with the University as a staff member in the Undergraduate Admission Office. Most of the students I work with hail from the Cincinnati, Columbus, and Dayton areas of Ohio, as well as some of Chicago's western 'burbs. I hope you enjoy my blog, which will focus on the admission process and other Loyola topics.
Damen Student Center
March 11th, 2013
If you haven’t heard, Loyola’s new student union (the Damen Student Center) is opening up this April. Although construction crews are putting the finishing touches on the interior building, I had the opportunity to tour the facility last week. It’s a truly incredible space. Our current student union (CSFU) has served it purpose on campus [...]
Looking Forward To Spring
March 4th, 2013
Well, it’s been a minute since I last wrote. This has been due in large part to what admission counselors call “reading season.” This is the time of year we read the numerous applications that students filled out in the Fall. Much like the “holiday season,” this time of year is stressful, fun, busy and [...]
Around the Country and Back Again
October 22nd, 2012
It’s been a long October. I’ve been literally all over the country, visiting high schools and attending college fairs. At one point, I visited three time zones in less than 48 hours. I felt like some world famous rapper on a global tour. But I wasn’t on tour. And I am not a world famous [...]
Loyola Hoops
September 14th, 2012
For many, the start of the Fall signals the return of some of the nation’s most popular sports. Specifically college and professional football. I am not one of those many. In fact, I think I’m one of the few. Because, for me, the start of Fall means that basketball season is right around the corner. I follow [...]
It’s That Time of Year Again
August 24th, 2012
August is coming to an end. The warmth that has enveloped Chicago the last couple months will flee and we will return those cold winters the city is famous for. While summer turning to fall means colder weather, it also means travel season is approaching for admission counselors around the world. Travel season is when admission counselors [...]
What’s Up World?!
August 17th, 2012
Hello! My name is Alex Benson and I’m an undergraduate admission counselor here at Loyola. I’ll be blogging through out the year, so I thought I’d take some time to tell a little about myself. I’m originally come from the great state of California. Specifically, Sacramento. I came to Loyola a couple years ago to attend the university. [...]
