Villanova University to Celebrate 19th Annual St. Thomas of Villanova Day of Service
On Saturday, September 7, Villanova University will hold its 19th annual St. Thomas of Villanova Day of Service. Named for the University’s patron saint, a 16th-century Augustinian bishop who devoted his life to helping the poor and disenfranchised, the yearly event is one of the Delaware Valley’s largest single-day community service initiatives.
Villanova University Opens Drosdick Hall, New Home of the College of Engineering
As the 2024-25 academic year begins, Villanova University officially opens Drosdick Hall—the new home of the College of Engineering—following the completion of a $125 million, 150,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art building expansion. This ambitious project more than doubled the size of the College of Engineering’s primary academic building, allowing for enhancements to all aspects of the academic and student experience.
Villanova University’s Office for Sustainability in Mission and Ministry will host the 2024 International Sustainability Conference, entitled Our Common Home, Our Common Hope: Community Engagement for a Safe and Just Future, from Oct. 1-3, 2024 in the Connelly Center. The goal of the conference is to promote interdisciplinary research that inspires communities to choose healthy lifestyles that benefit our world.
Villanova University has named Peter Hotez, MD, PhD, co-director of the Texas Children’s Hospital Center for Vaccine Development and founding dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, as the 2024 recipient of the Mendel Medal.
