Loyola University Maryland is receiving a $1.75 million gift to form a new program in peace and justice studies.
The college says Mary Catherine Bunting of Ruxton, a 1964 alumna of Mount St. Agnes College, is making the gift to create the new program named in her honor. The undergraduate program will also host a speaker series.
The college says the donation is one of the largest program-specific gifts in its history. Loyola joined with Mount St. Agnes College in 1971.
In a statement, Bunting says ?a little money going into peace is much better than all of the money going into war.?
Bunting is a retired certified nurse practitioner and was a one-time nun with the Sisters of Mercy.
The new program is expected to launch in 2014.
