An Integrated Learning Series
Known around the world for her tireless work against the death penalty, Sister Helen Prejean has been instrumental in sparking national dialogue on capital punishment and in shaping the Catholic Church’s vigorous opposition to all executions. We are pleased to welcome her to campus on February 27 to deliver our Core Convocation, and have planned additional events that can deepen individual understanding of the many issues connected with capital punishment. Please join us as you are able in this moving integrated learning series.
