The Dec. 2 event featured the dedication of a new indoor mural paying tribute to the courageous life of Ita Ford, a Brooklyn native who graduated from Fontbonne Hall in 1957.
Padin said he worked hard to "get it right." He emphasized the importance of telling a story through the mural: "We wanted to make sure that we really tell a story and that we inspire the students for now and for the future to come."
The mural, created in collaboration with the Maryknoll Sisters and the Sisters of St. Joseph, serves as a tribute to Ita Ford's legacy and a source of inspiration for current and future students.
Officials said the mural serves as a powerful reminder of Ford's commitment to justice and humanity - even in the face of danger.
