This is the first summer for the Saint John’s Campus Green, the centerpiece lawn that connects the school’s three academic buildings, Conal Hall, Flavian Hall and the Ryken Center. The Green, which took the place of a parking lot, was built last summer and dedicated at the Mass of the Holy Spirit in September 2010.
