On Saturday, January 21 St. Francis College held the 2012 Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony,
which honored five distinguished members of the alumni community for the athletic accomplishments
they achieved while students at the College.

On Saturday, January 28 St. Francis College held
its annual Alumni Memorial Mass, honoring the
memories of our alumni, and relatives of alumni,
who are no longer with us. Following the Mass,
a luncheon was held in the Genovesi Center.

On Thursday, March 1 our alumni returned to the
College to show their support for our Terriers as
the Men’s basketball team took on Quinnipiac
University in the Quarterfinals of 2012 Northeast
Conference Tournament.

Cold wind and rain couldn’t keep
165 runners from helping to
raise money for The Brooklyn
Bridge Park Conservancy, at the
14th Eileen C. Dugan Memorial
5K Fun Run on March 31, the
first time the run was held in
Brooklyn Bridge Park.
Several dozen St. Francis
students and alumni participated
in the event either as volunteers
along the course or by running
in the race which started and
finished in the Empire Fulton
Ferry section of the park and
looped along the harbor
from the Manhattan Bridge
to Atlantic Avenue.
The 3.1-mile race remembers
Eileen Dugan who was a New
York State Assemblymember
from 1980 to 1996.
