The Rededication….

The Gregori Mural with a protrait of Fr. Sorin

Founder's Week continued with the "Rededication" of the 2006 Dedication of the Gregorian Room, a study lounge with a once lost, but now found and restored, mural by Luigi Gregori- the artist who painted the University's Basilica and Main Building. The room, now dedicated to his memory, was feted with a reflection of the original Dedication, a reading of a specially commissioned haiku, clarinet and piano solos and a ribbon cutting ceremony. This year's Rededication inaugurated the new "Rectors' Wall," a wall containing hand drawn pictures of all rectors of St. Edward's Hall. Immediately following was a fête à la glace, or in other words, ice cream social.
