Magis Moment: June 2023

A Message from the Vice President of University Advancement 

No current human project strikes me as more visionary and hope-filled than the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. It’s an international repository holding well more than one million seed samples from all over the world with room for millions more. The goal is to preserve and protect crop diversity in the face of genetic developments in human food sources, climate change, war, and other challenges.

Since last month’s Pack Press, New Orleans and the world lost an all-time musical great when Kidd Jordan passed away on April 7. Loyola celebrated Mr. Jordan’s accomplishments and legacy as a musician, music educator, and father at our 2017 Commencement by awarding him an honorary doctorate.
