Across campus, students are using technology to enhance their classroom experience: from the School of Communications, where students incorporated virtual backdrop LED screens to study broadcasting and film, to the Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing, where VR simulations facilitate hands-on practice of patient care protocols.

Elsewhere, excitement fills the air as Stritch School of Medicine physicians-in-training receive their residency assignments on Match Day, kicking off the next stage of their medical career. On the Lake Shore Campus, preparations for Holy Week festivities at Madonna della Strada unfold, while Ramblers take advantage of unexpected spring weather. See these moments and more, captured in photos from March.
