Campaign for Italian American Studies at Loyola University Chicago September 18 Tony Fornelli, Fr. Regan, Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, Mike Veselka, past president of Unico National, Dominic Candeloro, and Art Lurigio, Assoc. Dean for Faculty---College of Arts and Science. Veselka presents first installment of Unico's $25,000 pledge. This puts us over $400,000 of the $500,000 goal

For University people, the best way to preserve and promote Italian American culture/history is is through endowment. We in Chicago have been very fortunate to have Loyola University offer a partnership. We are getting close to our goal. Our success so far brings to mind that endowed projects of every kind in all parts of the US are the wave of the future----especially as many of the old institutions in our culture diminish in power and wealth as the generations pass.
