A little glimpse into Loyola’s student life nearly seven decades ago before announcements filled our feeds 📲.



In 1959, students gathered for a Halloween Dance here at LOYNO 🎃. Some students created a sign to promote the dance. Now, social media does that work for us.

Beginning October 14, Monroe Library will transition to Loyola-only access at 8:00 p.m., instead of the previous 10:00 p.m. After 8:00 p.m., entry requires a valid Loyola ID with swipe access. Please remember to bring your Loyola ID if you plan to visit the library in the evening. This change was made in consultation with LUPD to support student safety. Thank you for helping keep our campus safe.

Need a break from Netflix tonight? 🍿 Come to our Film Screening of Ghost in the Machine in Bobet 332 and get ready to have your mind blown! 🤯 Did you know that AI wasn't created by robots, but by humans and their crazy power struggles? 💣 Watch as director Valerie Veatch digs deep into the wild story behind the AI hype and where we're headed next.

Ghost in the Machine is a visceral investigative essay documentary from director Valerie Veatch, whose past Sundance-premiering films Me @ the Zoo (HBO) and Love Child (HBO) explore how emerging technologies reshape identity, culture, and global power. This new film is her most ambitious work yet; over eight chapters, Veatch helms an urgent excavation of the philosophical, cultural, and political forces driving the global AI boom.
