Health and Safety Tips
If coming to campus, please keep the following health and safety tips in mind:
- Do not crowd around tables—study and dining tables are single-person occupancy only.
- Do not move any tables or chairs.
- A diner can remove their mask only while they’re eating and must replace it immediately after they’ve finished. Otherwise, a mask is always required.
Report a Compliance Concern
If you see anything on or around Loyola’s campuses that you believe to be an infraction, we ask that you contact a University representative (building ambassador, professor, etc.) or report it to 773-508-MASK (6275). You can also file a report online through the Office of Student Conduct & Conflict Resolution (OSCCR) and the Center for Student Assistance and Advocacy (CSAA).

The Graduate, Professional and Adult Council (GPAC) was developed to effectively represent all graduate, professional and adult students of Loyola University. Together we work to promote Loyola’s Jesuit values by providing service to others, active engagement with students to improve personal growth, and creativity in finding enduring solutions. GPAC aims to be a voice for the professional, graduate, and adult student population and encourages interaction among graduate students. This shall be done through activities including, but not limited to, correspondence with university administration, the sponsorship of social and service events, and participation with the University Senate. Our mission this coming year is to improve the mental health of graduate students, volunteer to help the community and mentor undergraduate students.
This coming year we are looking for new graduate and professional students within the Institute of Pastoral Studies, School of Law, Stritch School of Medicine, School of Social Work, Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing, Quinlan School of Business and School of Continuing and Professional Studies!
If you are interested and have any questions about the council, please reach out to either of the GPAC Co-Chairs:
Cici Gazder: agazder@luc.edu
Starr Young: tyoung7@luc.edu

Enhancing Diversity in Graduate Education (E.D.G.E) recognizes the need for graduate student involvement in advancing the strategic goals of enhancing diversity and inclusion at Loyola University Chicago. To that end, E.D.G.E strives to be a student-run collective that promotes equity and fosters community among graduate students across all intersecting identities. We strive to be a welcoming space for people of all races, sexes, gender identities, gender expressions, religions, ethnic backgrounds, socio-economic statuses, sexual orientations, abilities, and residency statuses. We also value brave ally support. The purpose of E.D.G.E is to provide a forum on campus for graduate students from diverse backgrounds to network and offer support and encouragement to its members in academic and professional domains. We also strive to advocate for campus-wide diversity initiatives including policies and programming.
We have a vast array of involvement opportunities coming up during the 2020-21 academic year and we hope you’ll join us! Please reach out to edge@luc.edu for more information or sign up for our mailing list here.
