Celebrate the Patron Saint of Artists with Creativity and Community.
Join us for a relaxing afternoon of art and fellowship as we honor the feast day of Blessed Fra Angelico, the famous 15th-century Dominican friar and painter. Known for his breathtaking frescoes and devotion, Fra Angelico believed that “to paint Christ, one must live with Christ.”
In the spirit of the Dominican tradition of the arts, we invite you to pick up a brush, sip a refreshing mocktail, and find your own creative inspiration.

Women’s Flag Football Coming to Dominican in the 2026-2027 Academic Year
Women’s flag football is coming to Dominican University during the 2026-2027 academic year.
Dominican University New York Department of Athletics has announced that women’s flag football will become it’s 20th sport, with its inaugural season in the spring of 2027.
“Flag football is one of the fastest growing sports in the country right now,” said Director of Athletics Joseph S. Clinton. “With it most likely going to be recognized by the NCAA Emerging Sports for Women program, it is the perfect time for us to add it to our roster of women sports.”
Women’s collegiate flag football showcases seven players on a football field that is 40 yards width by 80 yards in length. Each team moves offensively by running or passing a football, while the defense tries to “tackle” by pulling flags on the best of the ball carrier.
Flag football will hopefully be recognized by the NCAA in January 2026 as part of its Emerging Sports for Women program, which fosters opportunities for female athletes and expands competitive options for colleges and universities. More than 65 NCAA schools already sponsor the sport at the club or varsity level, and flag football is slated to debut at the 2028 Summer Olympics.
With the addition of Dominican, the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) will have seven members who sponsor the sport in 2026-2027. Caldwell University, Chestnut Hill College, the University of Bridgeport, Goldey-Beacom College, Holy Family University and Post University have previously announced the decision. The Lady Chargers will compete in the CACC with the hopes of competing the 2027 CACC Women’s Flag Football Championship Tournament.
Flag football is the fifth new sport Dominican University has introduced over the past five years.

Bobby Mulligan was a member of the Dominican University men’s basketball team when he tragically passed away on August 30, 1987. An accomplished player, Bobby was known for his competitiveness on the court. Off the Court he was recognized as a loyal individual with exceptional perseverance. Before the start of his senior year, Bobby had amassed 912 career points and would have assuredly reached the 1,000-point mark. He was posthumously added to the list. The Bobby Mulligan Memorial Scholarship Fund was created in his honor to benefit the student body.
Sue Heller, the first Lady Charger to score 1,000 career points, passed away on January 17, 2001. In her honor, the 1,000-point club was renamed the Sue Heller 1,000-Point Club, and one women’s basketball game each year will be played in her memory. A fierce competitor, Sue was extremely proud of her accomplishments at Dominican University, especially her 1998 induction into the Dominican University Athletic Hall of Fame. In addition to her athletic success, she graduated in 1980 with a B.A. in psychology and certification in special education. To perpetuate her legacy, The Sue Heller Memorial Scholarship fund has been established at Dominican University.
