President Bill Lennox continues to promote Saint Leo throughout our community. In September 2016, Saint Leo University was one of the sponsors of One Community Now Stand Down for Pasco County veterans, which took place at Veterans Memorial Park in Hudson, FL. Dr. Lennox and his wife, Anne, attended the event, spoke to veterans, and served them steak dinners.

Also in September, Dr. Lennox served as honorary captain for the Tampa Bay Rays (pictured above) before their game against the New York Yankees. In early November, he assisted the Center for Catholic-Jewish Studies in hosting Rabbi Abraham Skorka, a leader in the Jewish community and friend of Pope Francis, at University Campus. He also presented Rabbi Skorka with the Eternal Light Award following a presentation at Temple Emanu-El in Sarasota.

On March 1, Dr. Lennox was honored on the ice by the Tampa Bay Lightning at the National Hockey League matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes. He appeared in an episode of Military Makeover, airing on Lifetime Television®, in March. He is also active with the Florida Council of 100, serving as an ex officio member

In September, members of the Saint Leo University and Saint Leo Abbey communities enjoyed trips of a lifetime to help welcome Pope Francis during his visit to the United States.
