St. Xavier University

Letter from the "Office of the Mayor", City of Chicago, received 8/30/2006 with a brochure about the college and a reply card (which is to be expected).

"As mayor of the great City of Chicago, I am pleased to invite you to consider pursuing your educational dreams in the heart of the Midwest. [I thought I already lived there, in Ohio!] Chicago is home to an exceptional array of fine colleges and universities."

This letter was one of the more interesting mailings. When I got this one, all it said on the return address on the envelope was "Office of the Mayor, City of Chicago" just like the letterhead. I couldn't figure it out till I actually read the letter. Apparently the Mayor of Chicago is Catholic, and promotes his local Catholic university like every good Catholic should.

Incidentally, Moody Bible Institute is in Chicago...
