“Gratitude for our neighbor…a chapel of appreciation for Cabrini University with visiting faculty, students, staff, and administration from Cabrini.”
Eastern University is the neighboring institution of higher education in Radnor, PA, where Cabrini University has resided for the past 67 years. The two universities’ campuses nearly abut with winding Eagle Road meandering between them. As proclaimed on their website, Eastern University is a diverse, Christ-centered community preparing graduates to impact the world through faith, reason, and justice. Eastern University has been, and continues to be, a very collaborative neighbor of Cabrini University.
Yesterday, the administration, faculty, and staff of Eastern University invited the Cabrini campus community to their campus for a “chapel of appreciation”. A “chapel,” is a prayer service held every Wednesday on the Eastern campus and is inclusive of diverse faith traditions. People can attend a chapel in person or by live-stream.
Yesterday’s chapel was centered on Eastern’s appreciation for the many aspects of campus life that the two universities have shared throughout the years: academic courses, athletics, i.e. “the sportsman-like and competitive battles of Eagle Road,” and many communal faith, justice, and spiritual observances.
of Eastern’s administration shared prayers, songs, and personal reflections with Cabrini community. Cabrini University Interim President Ms. Helen Drinan, along with Angela Campbell, PhD, Vice-President for Mission and DEIB, and former Director of Campus Ministry Fr. Carl Janicki, in turn, shared their gratitude for the many kindnesses and collaborative initiatives Cabrini University has experienced with Eastern University throughout our six decades.
