Two fireplaces will glow inside Gonzaga University’s new University Center, symbolizing the words of St. Ignatius of Loyola who once said, “Go forth and set the world on fire.”

The $60 million, 167,726 square-foot building, which is set to be completed in Fall 2015, will be an anchor for the university’s Jesuit mission, President Thayne McCulloh said Thursday evening at a groundbreaking ceremony.

Today the Rev. C. Hightower is packing up his University Ministry office in the Crosby Student Center at Gonzaga University.

After five years of guiding students, teaching, and being the Jesuit face at the Zag basketball games, Hightower leaves next week for his new position as superior in Sacramento, Calif.
