University Holds Annual Ignatian Values in Action Lecture

Award-winning author Stephanie Saldaña discussed her book "What We Remember Will Be Saved" at The University of Scranton's 2024 Ignatian Values in Action Lecture, which took place on campus on Oct. 10.

Saldaña's book, "What We Remember Will Be Saved: A Story of Refugees and the Things They Carry," was selected for the University's "Royal Reads" program for the incoming class of 2028.

The Royal Reads program encourages all incoming students to read a designated book during the summer and to attend the lecture in order to create a shared experience among the students and expose them to the Ignatian values at the core of the University's mission. Throughout their first-year students will encounter themes of the "Royals Read" selection repeated in classes, extracurricular opportunities and other special events.
