On September 20, the Catholic Studies Department kicked off the 2009-2010 academic year with its annual ice cream social. The event was very well attended with over 150 students, faculty, and staff coming out for the Sunday evening event. An information table gave newcomers the opportunity to learn what Catholic Studies is all about. In addition, members of the new student organization C.S.I. (Catholic Students Incorporated) were present to hand out flyers and provide information about upcoming events on campus. The social was a huge success and was a great way to reconnect with old friends as well as to meet the newest additions to the Catholic Studies Department!
