On Friday, Loyola concluded its Weekend of Excellence with the annual Damen Ball, a dinner and dance that celebrates the accomplishments of students and faculty over the year. This year, the event was held downtown at Chicago’s Adler Planetarium. The excitement for this year’s Damen Ball seemed to be at an all time high. Tickets [...]

Hi! I’m Cat O’Brien, and I’m a sophomore here at Loyola. Originally from Richland, Michigan, I’m thrilled to be living in the exciting city of Chicago, although I miss my three brothers (most of the time!). I’m majoring in English/secondary education with a minor in ESL studies. In my spare time, I’m involved with UNICEF here on campus.
Political Science Lecture Series
April 28th, 2013
One of the greatest parts of attending a university like Loyola is the many academic opportunities offered to students. Over the past weeks, the Political Science Department has been hosting a series of lectures on various international issues. On Friday afternoon, I attended one of the lectures. Bethany Barratt, a research scholar and professor from [...]
The Megabus
April 22nd, 2013
When you are a student from out of state, it can be expensive to go home for school breaks or weekend visits. Plane tickets can cost hundreds of dollars, and it is not always easy having a car in the big city. Thankfully, there are other, less expensive options for those students needing a trip [...]
Spring Has (Almost) Sprung
April 14th, 2013
It is hard to believe that we have entered the spring season when temperatures remain below forty degrees in Chicago. As less windy cities experience sunny days and warm weather, Chicago seems to be trapped in one of its notorious six month winters. Thankfully, there is hope! Over the past couple of weeks, there have [...]
The Art Institute Of Chicago
April 11th, 2013
Today I took a trip downtown to the Art Institute of Chicago. Taking advantage of yet another perk of being a Loyola student, I was able to get in for free with my student ID card. The featured exhibit right now is a collection by Pablo Picasso. Unfortunately, the line was very long and I [...]
Preparing For The LSAT
April 11th, 2013
As graduation quickly approaches, I find myself and my fellow upper-classmen in the process of making plans for the future. Typically, education majors apply to graduate school in their specific areas of study. While the plans for my education career still seem in the fairly distant future, one of my roommates has already begun to [...]
St. Patrick’s Day
March 19th, 2013
St. Patrick’s day in Chicago is the best! At home, St. Patrick’s day comes and goes with an article of green clothing and maybe some green eggs. But in Chicago, it’s a whole different story. We celebrated it on Saturday instead of Sunday. My day started when I woke up at 7:30 am to start [...]
Spring Break
March 15th, 2013
We may still have Winter weather but last week was our Spring Break. Unfortunately, I did not get away from the cold as many of my college peers did. It was okay though because I went back home to Michigan and got to see my family and my dog. I had a very relaxed break [...]
