Gulf Coast Restoration

The other day I received this from the president of my alma mater:

To the Loyola University New Orleans community: Restoring the Gulf Coast after the oil spill will require vast resources. A nationwide movement is underway to help gather those resources, and Loyola University New Orleans supports this effort. I urge you to watch the video I have linked to below, and sign the petition that accompanies it. The video is produced by Women of the Storm, a New Orleans-based organization founded in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Their petition asks the federal government for financial assistance in restoring the Gulf Coast. Please watch the video and consider signing the petition at RestoreTheGulf.com For more on Loyola’s activities regarding the Gulf oil spill, visit our Crude Awakening website. With prayers and best wishes, Kevin Wm. Wildes, S.J., Ph.D. President

I ask that you please take a minute and visit the links and most importantly sign the petition.
