Student leaders were then recognized and commissioned during the ceremony, including those from the following groups:  Peer Education, Peer Mentoring, Service and Justice Leadership Council, Peer Ministry Leadership Council and Retreat Leadership.  The Liturgy ended with a rousing rendition of “This Little Light of Mine,” a perennial Fontbonne favorite.
