The Chestnut Hill College community marked its centennial on June 1 with a celebratory Mass at the Motherhouse of The Sisters of St. Joseph, led by Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez. The liturgy brought together student leaders, faculty, and staff to honor the milestone.

Established in 1924 by the Sisters of St. Joseph, the Catholic college was originally founded to serve young women. In 2003, it expanded its undergraduate programs to include both women and men. For more information about Chestnut Hill College, visit chc.edu. (Photos by Sarah Webb)
