Favorite memory from Santa Clara
- Some of my favorite memories at SCU were the Sunday 10 pm student masses, pool hang outs in Graham, backyard concerts, RHA planning sessions, study sessions at Mission City Coffee, and the campus concerts for Ozomatli and Jack Johnson.
- There are so many more, but what I appreciate most is that Santa Clara means something to every current student and alumni - it is a story to be shared not a dot on a map.
