BC Veterans Remembrance
Boston College will hold its 25th annual Veterans Mass and Remembrance Ceremony on November 11, beginning with a 9:30 a.m. Mass in St. Mary’s Chapel.
The remembrance ceremony, which includes a reading of the names of Boston College alumni veterans killed during the nation’s wars dating back to World War I, takes place just steps from the Boston College Veterans Memorial, where those names are inscribed.
David Dauphinais
The event’s featured speaker will be 2005 alumnus David Dauphinais, who served for 10 years as a United States Navy SEAL, conducting five combat deployments overseas in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Horn of Africa, and other areas of conflict. Following his service, Dauphinais earned graduate degrees from the Harvard Kennedy School and Dartmouth College Tuck School of Business, pursuing an interest in the public and private intersection of energy. He is an associate partner at the management consulting firm McKinsey & Company.
Dauphinais has often visited BC to speak on topics of leadership, team building, and public service. He is active within the Navy SEAL Foundation and previously served on the advisory board of the Pat Tillman Foundation.
A luncheon reception in Gasson Hall will follow the ceremony.
Sponsors of the event include the BC Alumni Association, Veterans Alumni Network, Army and Navy ROTC at Boston College, the Office of the Executive Vice President, and Campus Ministry.
