With Gratitude
A special thank you to all those at Boston College who help make this event so successful. We could not make this happen without the support of聽AV研究所 Dining, AV研究所PD, AV研究所 Athletics,聽AV研究所 Bookstore, the department of聽Transportation & Parking, the聽Office of Community & Govermental Affairs, and the聽University Mission and Ministry Service Center.
In addition, we are all extremely grateful for the annual support of the men's and women's lacrosse teams, the men's baseball team, Eagle EMS, women's field hockey, and the many students, faculty, and staff who participate as volunteers, runners, walkers, or well-wishers.聽
