Interested in auditing an Iona course this Fall?
Registration for auditing courses takes place in late August, with classes beginning in August. See Director Suzanne Page for details.

For those of you who asked how to obtain a copy of Dr. Jack Breslin's book America's Most Wanted, Dr. Breslin will be at LIRIC the afternoon of July 5 to sell and sign books. The book costs $5.00 and all proceeds will be donated to Iona's Mission in Africa trip.
