Seven students and three faculty members are traveling to Washington DC for the annual March for Life – on the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade.  From January 22nd – 26th our “Ledgers for Life”  will participate with others from Wisconsin Right to Life in a rally on the National Mall with more than 100,000 participants from across the country – all standing up for the dignity of the human person from womb to tomb – a consistent ethic of life which is a hallmark of the Catholic faith tradition.  During their Washington visit, students and faculty will also visit the National Holocaust Museum to examine the effects of man’s inhumanity to man as displayed in meaningful and moving exhibits.  Students will be documenting their trip and preparing presentations about the experience.

Watch for opportunities to hear from this group of Ledgers and learn about their March for Life experiences and encounters.
