Saint Xavier University's alumni and friends are welcome to attend the 2018 Homecoming Week of events where you can participate in activities that will be enjoyed by all!

​SXU alumnus Jim O'Donnell is the senior investigative producer at NBC10 and T62 in Philadelphia, managing the investigative and consumer teams. O'Donnell will speak to students interested in a career in media on Friday September 7 at 10 a.m. in the Fourth Floor Board Room in Warde Academic Center.

For the 2018-19 academic year, the Sisters of Mercy West Midwest Community has generously gifted SXU a $25,000 grant to support the Mercy Scholarship Program. Selected students will receive a $4,500 scholarship, and are expected to gain a greater understanding of the social concern of human trafficking in the first semester, and hosting a panel discussion in the second semester that will be open to the public.

Starting in September, SXU will welcome another alumnus back to campus, this time in the form of a priest! Fr. Vito Martinez, ’14, will be presiding at SXU's McDonough Chapel during Thursday Masses. While he did not originally plan for a life in the priesthood, Martinez found refuge and contentment through his connections with the Capuchin Franciscans during a time of self-discovery.
