Anchor legend inspires gift from Class of 2016 With the revival of the carillon bells, the debut of a new mascot, and the inception of Hurst Day, the 2015-16 academic year unofcially became the year of reinvigorating Mercyhurst University traditions.
The Class of 2016 did its part when students presented a check to President Michael Victor for more than $12,000 to fund their Senior Class Gift, a six-foot bronze anchor. The sculpture, to be installed across from the Audrey Hirt Academic Center, represents the strength and determination of Lakers everywhere. The gift symbolizes The Legend of the Mercyhurst Anchor , which recounts how Mercyhurst mascot Luke the Laker clung to an anchor forged by his father while he rode out a treacherous storm and emerged unscathed. From that day forward, the anchor became a symbol of good luck and fortune. The Class Gift committee set a goal of $10,000 and a participation rate of 60 percent, exceeding both with contribution totaling $12,226.25 and 63 percent participation. “Students today, more than ever, are eager to join the senior gift committee, wanting to be involved, and wanting to support Mercyhurst,” said Lindsay Cox ‘12 ‘14M, director of alumni engagement. “We have developed a strong culture of giving among students and a sense of tradition in giving back.” The practice of graduating seniors bestowing a parting gift on their alma mater dates back to at least 1989, when seniors purchased the stained glass window in the Mercy Heritage Room. Other memorable gifts include the 24/7 study lounge in Hammermill Library (Class of 2008); the “Rock” in front of Old Main (2001); the Sister Damien Spirit Bell (2005); the sports courts between Briggs and Lewis avenues (2007); the “Spirit Section” at Tullio Field (2014); the concession stand in the MAC (2015); and the outdoor classroom in front of Zurn Hall (2011).
