“Loyola's Jesuit aim is to create an inclusive environment where students, staff, professors, and everyone visiting their campuses feel included and at home. Being undocumented has always made me concerned about the 'what ifs' and if I would be supported and welcomed in the places I went,” Rossy said.
“Arrupe College provided me with what I needed and more; their purpose of compassion is truly evident in every place you enter. I was continuously encouraged to use my voice for not just myself but for others, which as I have often expressed is genuinely a goal that I hold near because as a minority, I know what it can feel like to be silenced”
