Founders Week Explores ‘One Heart, One Spirit: Living the Mission’

Faculty, staff, students and alumni joined campus Spiritans Feb. 2 through Feb. 7 to celebrate Founders Week 2014, the annual celebration of the work, vision and mission of our University’s founders, the Spiritans.

Under the theme of One Heart, One Spirit: Living the Mission, Founders Week featured a series of events that focused around Spiritan education, Duquesne’s mission and how the University, as a community, lives that mission each day.

Four lunch-and-learn events during Founders Week highlighted various groups on campus, including students from the Greek life community, commuters and faculty. Student Government Association President Attila Mihalik was the featured speaker at a lunch-and-learn event, where he discussed his experiences from a mission trip to the Dominican Republic.

Founders Week concluded with Vespers and a reception hosted by the Spiritans in Trinity Hall.
