About 100 members of the Salve community gathered in the Ochre Court State Dining Room on Apr. 19 to recognize some of the university’s finest at this year’s Student Life Honors Dinner. Among those honored were members of the Miley Hall housekeeping staff, who were the recipients of one of three Freshman Advocate Awards.

The Great Hall of Ochre Court came alive with swing dancing and the strains of Duke Ellington Friday night as the Newport Community Jazz Band and Jazz Ensemble took center stage for their spring concert.

“The music (made) me want to pirouette all over Ochre Court,” said Salve Regina sophomore Daryl Ward, who had come to watch her boyfriend play drums.

Last Fri., April 28, approximately 100 people spent a few hours of their afternoon in Bazarsky Hall for the panel discussion, “It’s More Than a Game: Exploring Opportunities in the Business of Sports”.

The event attracted students, faculty, local members of the community and prospective students.
