Survey on Discrimination and Hate Crime against Jews in the EU 2018
No full textThe survey provides comparable data on the perceived extent and nature of antisemitism across a number of selected EU Member States, whether it is manifested as hate crime, hate speech, discrimination or in any other form that undermines Jewish people’s feelings of safety and security. The survey was commissioned by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA). It follows up on the agency’s first survey, conducted in seven countries in 2012.
The overall objectives of FRA’s second survey on discrimination and hate crime against Jews in the European Union (EU) are 1) to collect comparable data in the selected EU Member States and thereby contributing to the assessment and further development of policies that aim to protect the fundamental rights of Jewish people living in the EU; 2) to identify changes over time with respect to the results of the first survey on discrimination and hate crime against Jews in 2012; 3) to further develop research methodologies for surveying hard-to-reach groups using online survey tools; 4) to deliver FRA’s key stakeholders research evidence that can be used to raise awareness of fundamental rights and address gaps in the protection of rights.
The 2018 survey collected data from 16,395 self-identified Jewish respondents (aged 16 or over) in 12 EU Member States – Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. These Member States are home to over 96 % of the EU’s estimated Jewish population. The survey collected data through an open online survey and was available for respondents to complete for seven weeks in May–June 2018.
The survey asked respondents about their opinions on trends in antisemitism, antisemitism as a problem in everyday life, personal experiences of antisemitic incidents, witnessing antisemitic incidents and worries about becoming a victim of an antisemitic attack. The survey also provides data on the extent to which respondents consider antisemitic acts against the Jewish community – such as vandalism of Jewish sites or antisemitic messages in the broadcast media or on the internet – to be a problem in the countries. The survey collected data on the effects of antisemitism on respondents’ daily behaviour and their feelings of safety, and about any actions they take due to security fears. The questions about personal experiences of specific forms of harassment or physical violence were followed up with questions concerning the details of such incidents, including their frequency, the number and characteristics of perpetrators, and the reporting of the incident to any organisation or institution. The survey collected data about personal experiences of feeling discriminated against on different grounds and in various areas of everyday life – for example, at work, school, or when using specific services. The survey followed up on respondents’ discrimination experiences with questions concerning the reporting of incidents and the reasons for non-reporting. The survey also explored the level of rights awareness regarding antidiscrimination legislation, victim support organisations and knowledge of any legislation concerning the trivialisation or denial of the Holocaust. In addition, the survey collected socio-demographic data, such as respondents´ gender and age, educational background, employment status, and income.

3. Erfahrungen mit Vandalis
Garešnica and the Garešnica region in World War II (1941–1945)
No full textPočetkom Drugog svjetskog rata i raspadom Kraljevine Jugoslavije ustaški režim novoosnovane marionetske
hrvatske države počinje s progonom srpskog i židovskog stanovništva na garešničkom području. U prosincu 1941. počinje
početak partizanskog organiziranja i to spajanjem garešničke i čazmanske grupe u četu Kasim Čehajić s ukupno 48 partizana
(29 Hrvata, 10 Srba i ostali). Ustanak vode uglavnom predratni komunisti, a postojale su dvije postrojbe: za zapadni
dio Moslavine (Ivanić-Grad i Čazma) te za istočni dio (Garešnica). Već sredinom 1942. dolazi do značajnog razvoja narodnoslobodilačkog
pokreta pod vodstvom komunista u ovom kraju. U radu se pokazuje i ustrojstvo ustaškog pokreta na garešničkom
području te međusobni sukobi ustaške vojnice, domobranstva NDH i Nijemaca s partizanskim postrojbama. Narod
je podijeljen između ustaških, domobranskih i partizanskih postrojbi. Rad prikazuje i djelovanje HSS-a na tom području i
njegovo cijepanje između ustaškog i partizanskog pokreta. Pobjedom partizanskog pokreta pod vodstvom KPJ nova država
uvodi komunistički sustav.At the beginning of World War II and the collapse
of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the Ustasha regime of the
newly established puppet Croatian state began persecuting
the Serbian and Jewish population in the
Garešnica area. In December 1941, the partisan organization
began, with the merger of the Garešnica and
Čazma groups into the Kasim Čehaić Platoon with a
total of 48 partisans (29 Croats, 10 Serbs and others).
The uprising was led mainly by pre-war communists
organised in two units: one for the western part of
Moslavina (Ivanić-Grad and Čazma) and the other for
the eastern part (Garešnica). By the middle of 1942, the
national liberation movement under communist leadership
in this area had significantly developed. The paper
also shows the organization of the Ustasha movement
in the Garešnica area and the conflicts between the
Ustasha soldiers, the Home Guard of the Independent
State of Croatia and the Germans with the Partisan
units. The people were divided between the Ustasha,
Home Guard and Partisan units. The paper provides an
overview of the activities of the Croatian Peasant Party
in that area and its split between the Ustasha and Partisan
movements. With the victory of the Partisan movement
under the leadership of the Communist Party of
Yugoslavia, the new state introduced a communist system

Im Jahr 2018 wurden Daten von 16.395 selbst identifizierten jüdischen Befragten (ab 16 Jahren) in 12 EU-Mitgliedstaaten - Belgien, Dänemark, Deutschland, Frankreich, Italien, Niederlande, Österreich, Polen, Schweden, Spanien, Großbritannien, Ungarn - erhoben. In diesen Mitgliedstaaten leben über 96 % der geschätzten jüdischen Bevölkerung der EU. Die Umfrage wurde im Rahmen einer offenen Online-Umfrage durchgeführt und stand den Befragten im Mai-Juni 2018 für sieben Wochen zur Verfügung. Die Umfrage befragte die Teilnehmer zu ihren Meinungen über Trends im Antisemitismus, Antisemitismus als Problem im Alltag, persönliche Erfahrungen mit antisemitischen Vorfällen, Zeugen antisemitischer Vorfälle und Sorgen, Opfer eines antisemitischen Angriffs zu werden. Die Umfrage liefert auch Daten darüber, inwieweit antisemitische Handlungen gegen die jüdische Gemeinde - wie z.B. Vandalismus jüdischer Seiten oder antisemitische Nachrichten in den Medien oder im Internet - in den Ländern als Problem angesehen werden. Die Umfrage sammelte Daten über die Auswirkungen von Antisemitismus auf das tägliche Verhalten der Befragten und ihr Sicherheitsgefühl sowie über alle Maßnahmen, die sie aufgrund von Sicherheitsängsten ergreifen. Den Fragen nach persönlichen Erfahrungen mit bestimmten Formen von Belästigung oder körperlicher Gewalt folgten Fragen zu den Einzelheiten solcher Vorfälle, einschließlich ihrer Häufigkeit, der Anzahl und Merkmale der Täter sowie der Meldung des Vorfalls an eine Organisation oder Institution. Die Umfrage sammelte Daten über persönliche Erfahrungen mit dem Gefühl der Diskriminierung aus verschiedenen Gründen und in verschiedenen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens - zum Beispiel bei der Arbeit, in der Schule oder bei der Nutzung bestimmter Dienstleistungen. Die Umfrage griff die Diskriminierungserfahrungen der Befragten mit Fragen zur Meldung von Vorfällen und den Gründen für die Nichtberichterstattung auf. Die Umfrage untersuchte auch den Grad des Rechtsbewusstseins in Bezug auf Antidiskriminierungsgesetze, Opferhilfeorganisationen und Kenntnisse über alle Gesetze zur Verharmlosung oder Leugnung des Holocaust. Darüber hinaus wurden soziodemografische Daten wie Geschlecht und Alter der Befragten, Bildungsstand, Beschäftigungsstatus und Einkommen erhoben. Themen: 1. Rechtsbewusstsein, Wahrnehmungen und Einstellungen: Wahrnehmung von Kriminalität, Arbeitslosigkeit, Rassismus, Antisemitismus, Einwanderung, Regierungskorruption und Intoleranz gegenüber Muslimen als Problem im Land; Zunahme vs. Abnahme von Kriminalität, Rassismus, Antisemitismus und Intoleranz gegenüber Muslimen im Land; Wahrnehmung antisemitischer Handlungen gegen die jüdische Gemeinde als Problem im Land (antisemitische Graffiti, Schändung jüdischer Friedhöfe, Vandalismus jüdischer Gebäude oder Institutionen, Ausdruck der Feindseligkeit gegenüber Juden auf der Straße oder an anderen öffentlichen Orten, Antisemitismus in den Medien, im politischen Leben und im Internet einschließlich der sozialen Medien); Zunahme vs. Abnahme der oben genannten Probleme; Häufigkeit von persönlich erlebten antisemitischen Kommentaren von Nichtjuden (Juden haben zu viel Macht im Land, Juden nutzen die Opferrolle des Holocaust für ihre eigenen Zwecke aus, der Holocaust ist ein Mythos oder wurde übertrieben, Israelis verhalten sich ´wie Nazis´ gegenüber den Palästinensern, Welt ein besserer Ort ohne Israel, Juden sind nicht in der Lage, sich in die nationale Gesellschaft zu integrieren, die Interessen der Juden im Land unterscheiden sich sehr von den Interessen der übrigen Bevölkerung, Juden bescheren sich Antisemitismus selbst); Orte oder Vorfälle, an denen der Befragte diese Kommentare gehört oder gesehen hat; Erwägung einer nichtjüdischen Person als antisemitisch aufgrund der oben genannten Kommentare und des folgenden Verhaltens: stellt immer fest, wer unter seinen Bekannten jüdisch ist, kritisiert Israel, betrachtet die im Land lebenden Juden nicht als Staatsangehörige, würde keinen Juden heiraten, denkt, dass Juden erkennbare Merkmale haben, unterstützt Boykotte gegen Israel oder Israelis; Auswirkungen des arabisch-israelischen Konflikts auf das Sicherheitsgefühl als Jude im Land; Gefühl, als Jude für Handeln der israelischen Regierung beschuldigt zu werden; die Bewertung der Bekämpfung von Antisemitismus durch die nationale Regierung; angemessene Reaktion der Regierung auf die Sicherheitsbedürfnisse jüdischer Gemeinden; Eltern eines oder mehrerer Kinder, die die die Schule besuchen; Kinder/Kinder besuchen eine jüdische vs. eine nicht-jüdische Schule; Gründe für die Wahl einer jüdischen Schule bzw. die Wahl einer nicht-jüdischen Schule; Häufigkeit des Vermeidungsverhaltens, weil sich der Befragte als Jude nicht sicher fühlt (Besuch jüdischer Ereignisse oder Stätten, bestimmter Orte in der Nähe oder Nachbarschaft); Überlegungen in den letzten fünf Jahren aus Sicherheitsgründen aus dem Land auszuwandern; aktive Vorbereitungen für Auswanderung und bevorzugtes Land; Umzug in ein anderes Gebiet oder Viertel aus Sicherheitsgründen; Überlegungen für den Umzug in ein anderes Gebiet und aktive Vorbereitungen. 2. Belästigung: persönliche Erfahrungen mit bestimmten Formen von Belästigung oder körperlicher Gewalt und deren Häufigkeit in den letzten 5 Jahren und in den letzten 12 Monaten (beleidigende oder bedrohliche E-Mails oder Textnachrichten, beleidigende, bedrohliche oder schweigende Telefonanrufe, beleidigende oder bedrohliche Kommentare an den Befragten persönlich, beleidigende Gesten oder unangemessene Blicke, gepostete beleidigende Kommentare über den Befragten im Internet, einschließlich der sozialen Medien); Erfahrungen aufgrund von Antisemitismus; schwerwiegendster Vorfall von antisemitischer Belästigung der letzten 5 Jahre; Merkmale dieses schwerwiegendsten Vorfalls (antisemitische Sprache wurde verwendet, der Befragte konnte als jüdisch identifiziert werden, geschah am Sabbat oder an einem jüdischen Feiertag, geschah an einem bedeutenden Datum für den Täter, antisemitische Symbole wurden verwendet, traten an/bei einem jüdischen Ort oder Ereignis auf, Täter hatte eine Reputation für ähnliches Handeln, geschah während der Zeit der Spannungen oder Konflikte in Israel, etwas anderes geschah, das ihn antisemitisch machte, nicht sicher, ob er antisemitisch war; Anzahl und Charakteristika der Täter; Ort, an dem sich dieser Vorfall ereignet hat; Meldung des Vorfalls an die Polizei oder eine andere Organisation; Art der anderen Organisation (ein Mitglied des Parlaments, ein Gemeinderat, eine jüdische Autoritätsperson, eine jüdische Organisation, die sich auf Sicherheit und/oder Antisemitismus spezialisiert hat, eine andere jüdische Organisation, verantwortliche Person am Arbeitsplatz, in der Schule oder Universität, in den Medien, eine Opferhilfe, eine andere Organisation); Gründe für die Nichtberichterstattung an die Polizei. 3.

Violence, terrorism and the role of theology : repentant and rebellious Christian identity
No full textWhat has come to be known within the Academy as, Identity theology, is presented in the
literature as a monolithic belief system which supports and encourages terrorism and other forms
of political violence. This dissertation argues that inattention to theological and social issues
within the many Identity theology based groups in the US has led to a deeply flawed
understanding of the relation between Identity adherents, terrorism and other political violence.
Discussions about these groups in the literature are flawed and there is an imprecise understanding
which has led to an inaccurate alignment of widely varied social groups with a pejorative
classification that is neither descriptive of the various theologies at work, nor the social
manifestations observed in these groups. Further, the research suggests that the academic
community known as “Terrorism Studies” continues to contribute to the inaccurate
understanding and that those inaccuracies are likely impediments to effective government policy
in relation to the phenomenon known as Identity theology.
The research presented here suggests that there are both theological and social
distinctions, which can and should be delineated and understood by all those researching Identity
groups. The research highlights four significant types or differences within what is now known
as Identity theology, by highlighting the nuances between social groups including the Church of
Israel, Covenant, Sword and the Arm of the Lord (CSA), Mission to Israel, KKK and Aryan
Nations and suggests that a more precise understanding of the differences could lead to declining
instances of violence and more openness to positive social change by those who currently follow
these very different types of theological belief systems

Relay for Life: An exercise in resilience
Fundraising for cancer research,
12 years in the making
On Monday, April 20, the
Jewish Student Association
invited SLU students and
faculty to the Center for
Global Citizenship to hear
from Ben Fainer, a Holo-caust
survivor.
Born in Poland, Fainer
was only nine years old when
the Nazis uprooted him and
his family. Fainer and his
father were taken to a labor
camp, while
his mother
and siblings
were taken to
Au s c hw i t z ,
never to be
heard from
again. For six
years, in six
different labor
concentration
camps, each
day he planned
the life he would live if he
survived. Mr. Fainer put it
simply, “I was
young, so I
made it.” He
and his father
were the only
survivors out
of their 250
family mem-bers
through-out
Poland.
Liberated by
the 23rd divi-sion
of the US
Army, he was only 16 years
old and had a lot of life to
live. The Nazis may have
embittered his adolescence,
but his life post-Holocaust
broke out of its former dark-ness.
After being liberated,
Fainer went to live with fam-ily

his wife, Susan. They moved

Jay Bryant: President-elect
gearing to go
Jay Bryant, the incoming
SGA president for the 2015-
2016 school year, has been
busy as he readies himself
for office, but he feels confi-dent
– both in his incoming
leadership team and in the
University administration.
“I feel great,” he said. “I’m
really excited for our team
… I’m excited about the fu-ture
of the administration. I
actually had the pleasure of
meeting Dr. Brickhouse, the
new provost, [recently]. A
couple of students met with
her, and she’s very open to
new ideas, and she’s definite-ly
a listening ear.”
Indeed, spring has been
a busy time of the year for
the upper echelons of SLU’s
management. In early May,
the University will release its
strategic plan for the future,
and Bryant sees this as an
opportunity for student in-put
to be heard.
Bryant said: “The ques-tion
is: why should [stu-dents]
care about the future
SLU? And I think that that’s
a huge role that SGA will
have, saying ‘here’s how you
can better SLU for the future
Billikens and also how you
can be a part of this process
to improve SLU in general.’”
This being said, though
Bryant sees SGA has hav-ing
a big role to play in voic-ing
student input during the
strategic planning process,
he thinks that his experienc-es
outside of SGA have ac-tually
been beneficial to his
future role as president. Tak-ing
a year off, after two years
within the organization
have, he said, given him the
fresh perspective of an out-sider;
having been involved
with a chartered student or-ganization
this year – Relay
for Life – he has seen ways in
which SGA can better com-municate
with CSOs – and
all students.
“This year has really been
eye-opening,” Bryant said. “I
have diminished that SGA
tunnel vision maybe that I
formed freshman and soph-omore
year. Now I know
more of the communication
needs that students want
from SGA and vice versa …
because when I was in SGA
it [was like] we know all this
information and the sena-tors
know all of this informa-tion,
and it’s not that it was
confidential information. It’s
just ‘how do we push this
information out to all the
students?’ And so, my eyes
have been opened to com-municating
more, especially
about the strategic plan.”
Bryant, a communication
major and marketing minor,
hopes that ultimately his ex-periences
– both inside and
outside of SGA – will help
him land a job after his ca-reer
at SLU comes to a close
next May; he has no immedi-ate
plans for grad school. But
he has cherished his time at
SLU, and he sees great value
in the University’s mission
– particularly its stress on
searching for truth.
The pursuit of truth, Bry-

On Saturday, April 18,
members of the SLU com-munity
gathered on the track
at Hermann Stadium for the
American Cancer Society’s
Relay For Life.
In Relay’s 12th year of
raising money and aware-ness
for the fight against

cancer at SLU, the event had
1,670 participants and raised
25,000 more than
the year before.
“Our Event Leadership
Team worked so hard all year
to plan this event, and it was
so powerful to see all of that
hard work pay off on Satur-day,”
said Relay co-chair Erin
Steiner, who has been in-volved
with the organization
since high school. “We made
our focus sharing the mis-sion
of Relay For Life with
the SLU community, and our
team did an incredible job
doing that all year long.”
The event was kicked off
by the annual survivor lap.
Cancer survivors from the
SLU community walked in
one direction on the track
while their caregivers went
in the opposite direction,
meeting in the middle to
release balloons, which al-lowed
the rest of the partici-pants
to join in the first of-ficial
lap.
For the duration of the
12-hour event, participants
could continue to walk laps,
watch the live entertainment
of the various SLU perfor-mance
groups and purchase
goods sold by the participat-ing
teams.
After the sun went down,
the participants gathered in
the stands again for the Lu-minaria
ceremony.

SUMMER
AT MARQUETTE.
Summer is a great time to be in Milwaukee. It’s also a great
time to take a class at Marquette. Campus is just minutes from
Lake Michigan, as well as great neighborhoods, restaurants,
sporting events, theatres, biking trails — and Summerfest, the
world’s largest music festival. And we’re just scratching the
surface. Enjoy it all while getting six weeks closer to graduation
with our accelerated classes.
marquette.edu/summer
Registration begins March 19.
I’m Father Jacques Marquette,
a 17th-century explorer, Jesuit
missionary and the university’s
namesake. Summer is the best
time of year to be at Marquette,
mes amis. Centuries later, it
never gets old.

are here,” said co-chair Jay
Bryant, who began partici-pating
in Relay as a third
grader.
Luminarias are white pa-per
bags that contain votive
candles and are generally
decorated and dedicated to
someone who has been af-fected
by cancer. During the
ceremony, the bags are lined
around the track, and the
candles inside are lit.
“As we light the candles,
we not only remember the
loved ones who are no longer
with us, but those who have
survived,” said Bryant. “They
are ‘lights of hope,’ which in-spire
us to keep fighting until
there is a cure.”
The Luminaria ceremony
also included a special trib-ute
to Sarah Wielgos, a SLU
student and Event Leader-ship
Team member for Re-lay,
who passed away from
cancer in January 2015.
“Receiving ‘that’ phone
call … is still hard for me to
comprehend,” said Bryant.
“Although our Relay Event
Leadership Team has suf-fered
immensely by her pass-ing,
we’ve been even more
motivated to make this year’s
event special.”
The tribute included se-nior
SLU student Garvaundo
Hamilton singing a rendition
of Josh Groban’s “You Raise
Me Up.”
“We wanted to make sure
we could honor Sarah in a
special way at Relay this year,
and I think her presence and
light was felt very strongly
throughout the night,” said
Steiner.
The ceremony also in-cluded
speaker, Rhonda

Brown, who shared the story
of her nine-year-old son,
Joshua, and his fight against
brain cancer. Joshua had
been able to make a special
connection with the Billik-ens
men’s basketball team
during the 2012-13 season,
which included a trip to San
Jose with the team for the
NCAA tournament, before
he passed away in June 2013.
After his passing, the Brown
family founded Joshua’s
Great Things Foundation to
raise funds and awareness
for pediatric brain cancer.
The participants were
then invited to line the track
and light candles, while
names of those who have
been affected by cancer were
read and remembered.
“Standing shoulder-to-shoulder
with a friend, or a
stranger, reflecting on how
cancer has impacted so
many lives reminds us that
no one has to fight cancer
alone,” said Bryant.
At around 5 a.m. on Sun-day,
the event came to an end
with the closing ceremony,
which included a final reveal
of how much money had
been raised for the event.
“When Jay and I stood on
the field at closing ceremo-nies
before the final reveal,
we both agreed we were not
even thinking about the total
fundraising number because
the feeling of community at
the event was so overwhelm-ingly
positive,” said Steiner.
Bryant agreed, saying, “I
think it is easy to get caught
up in the numbers … the
people that Erin and I have
met, from passionate stu-dents
to inspiring cancer
survivors, has been the best
part of the experience.”
Survivor: An appeal to youth for freedom
St. Louis in 1957. He became
a citizen of the United States
in 1962, and aimed to live
the life he dreamt of while in
the concen-tration
camp
. Today, at
84 years old,
he has seven
children and
lives a com-fortable
life,
retired from
his career as
a women’s
clothing de-signer.
F a i n e r
began making appearances
only about six years ago. “I
never wanted to do this, I
was very quiet,” the survivor
said. But after 60 years, and
the death of his beloved wife
who always encouraged him
to speak about his experienc-es,
he decided to begin shar-ing
his memories. “It’s a joy
to be here…it does my heart
good,” Fainer said to the au-dience.
For the majority of
the evening he emphasized
the importance of facing the
past in order
to prevent
its reoc-c
u r r e n c e .
“I hope you
b e a u t i f u l
young peo-ple
don’t let
that happen
again,” Fain-er
said. He
talked about
a c k n o w l -
edging the
ugly realities of the past, but
insisted that upholding hope
must be an objective of fu-ture
generations, as well.
Apart from speaking en-gagements,
Fainer also cre-ated
a documentary with in-terviews
from survivors and
liberators, which includes
footage from American sol-diers,
too. He published a
book entitled “Silent for Six-ty
Years.” Mr. Fainer believes
that telling the world what
happened is the duty of both
those who
survived it,
and those
who wit-nessed
the
reality of the
camps upon
liberation.
Determi-nation
and
strength de-fine
Fainer
to this day
—“The only
guy or lady that is going to
take me is the almighty God.”
Simple compassion and
standing up for justice are
virtues Fainer hopes will be
part of the current, and fu-ture,
generations. “I hope to
God that one day people can
believe what they want to
believe,” he said. Mr. Fainer
learned acceptance of all re-ligions
while in the concen-tration
camps. He noted that
faiths should be welcomed
for the comfort they provide
to people.
The cur-rent
genera-tion
will be
the last to
experience
f i r s t- h a n d
accounts of
the Holo-caust.
For
this reason,
taking time
to hear sur-vivors,
like
Fainer, is important. Af-ter
the survivors are gone,
the job of not letting the
world forget the terrors of
the Holocaust will rest in
new hands,. Fainer has high
hopes for the future and
says, “Every day is a new day
and I love it.”

Marked for Life: Fainer shows his tattoo to an audience member. It was given to him by the Nazis as a tracking number while
he was at one of six work camps, including Auchwitz.
ant said when asked what
advice he, as SGA president,
would give to an incoming
freshman, “is so important
for every student to under-stand:
that they are in control
of their own pursuit. And
that means
listening to
both sides
of the ar-gument.
It
means dis-a
g r e e i n g
with others
and find-ing
com-mon
ground
and work-ing
through
that conflict—and listening
to each other with both ears
open. And so I think that
plays into SGA as we are a
governing body—listening
to both sides … and making
sure that all voices are heard
through the different con-stituents
that the senators
represent.”
When he is not giving
interviews, meeting with
University administrators,
or putting together his vi-sion
for the future of SGA,
Bryant enjoys much that St.
Louis has to offer. He’s a
fan of Imo’s
pizza, and
he enjoys
going to the
s ymp h o ny
at the Powell
Symphony
Hall, which
is just steps
from SLU’s
campus.
And Bry-ant
says that
he feels very comfortable in
a bowtie.
“I love bowties,” he said
“and I will never ever have
a pre-tied bow tie—always
self-tied. I actually find bow-ties
easier to tie … because
you don’t need to worry
about length.”
