Students for Life

17³Ô¹ÏÍø Students for Life is an advocacy and consciousness-raising organization that attempts to foster increased concern and respect for human life.

The group's primary concern is the issue of abortion, the most pressing threat to life, but we also deal with a broad range of other life issues, including abortion, euthanasia, stem cell research, capital punishment. The group also addresses quality of life issues such as poverty and child abuse. 

We are committed to promoting dialogue on polarizing issues and have sponsored a number of events on campus. We also host a pro-life prayer vigil each semester and lead a group to the March for Life in the winter. We meet regularly in Campion House to foster individual reflection, to promote community, and to organize specific programs for the wider campus community. For more information, contact Fr. Hayes
