A Message from the Vice President of University Advancement 

One of my predecessors in the job of vice president of advancement at Loyola University New Orleans is Charlie Young '64. Charlie is retired now after a distinguished career in philanthropy in New Orleans. He and his wife, Sandy '66, still come to a lot of events at Loyola New Orleans. I most recently saw them at the Mass of the Holy Spirit last month.

Loyola University New Orleans alumna Kristen Rome, J.D.

Previously, Kristen served as LCCR’s JLWOP Legal Representation Director.
