Holiday Gift Guide 2009
From big to small, your Alumni Association offers holiday gifts for all. This season, look no further than Loyola to provide a variety of options that are sure to please everyone on your list.
For the Rambler Fan...
Buy Loyola University Chicago alumni apparel through Club Colors, which provides an array of high-quality, customizable Alumni Association-branded merchandise, including items for the JFRC. Or, browse the Loyola Bookstore, which offers a variety of items that make perfect stocking stuffers.
SkinIt.com sells decorative Loyola skins that provide a thin, protective membrane that help protect your personal devices (cell phone, laptop, PDA, etc.) from occasional nicks and scratches from everyday use (and shows off Loyola pride!).
For the History Buff...
Published last fall to coincide with the University's celebration of 100-years as a University, Born in Chicago is the first-ever Loyola history book. Written by noted Chicago historian Ellen Skerrett, the book tells the story of how Loyola University Chicago and the city of Chicago have evolved together for more than a century, from the time of the Great Fire and Father Arnold Damen's founding of St. Ignatius College on 12th Street, to the present day. The book is available online through Loyola Press.
For the Know It All...
There's always more to learn! Tuck a gift certificate for a continuum course in the stocking of someone you love. Loyola's life-long learning program offers an array of courses spanning everything from professional development to the arts and culture. Visit LUC.edu/continuum or call 312.915.6501 for details and to register. Alumni receive a 15% discount on most courses (and gift certificates).

For the Traveler...
Special people deserve special trips, so give the gift of travel in 2010. Journey to the Dalmatian Coast, Turkey, Italy’s Magnificent Lake District, Bavaria (including Oberammergau and the world-renowned Passion Play), and Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, & PE Island. Early booking discounts apply for most trips.
For the Art Lover...
Located in historic Lewis Towers on Chicago's fabulous Magnificent Mile in the heart of Chicago's cultural and shopping district, LUMA is dedicated to the exploration, promotion, and understanding of art and artistic expression that attempts to illuminate the enduring spiritual questions and concerns of all cultures and societies. Be sure to stop by this holiday season for Art and Faith of the Creche: The Collection of James and Emilia Govan, running December 5, 2009 thru January 17, 2010.
For the Philanthropist...
Make a gift in someone's name to help support Loyola University Chicago. Loyola is proud to educate students to be ethical leaders in their communities and in the world, and to give back with what they learn here. The generosity of our alumni and friends makes it possible for the students of today and tomorrow to receive a world-class Jesuit education.
