The 2025 Safety Street trick-or-treat and Movies at Mercy event was a great success and would not be possible without the candy donations and involvement from students and staff from Detroit Mercy. More than 150 children from the local community and their families were able to enjoy trick-or-treating and so much more in a safe environment.

The Office of the Registrar won the departmental candy donation contest by donating a total of 61 pounds, Kappa Beta Gamma won the student candy donation contest by donating more 16 pounds and the Society of Women Engineers won the facade decorating competition with a rendering of a dragon.

This event is only possible with collaboration from the campus community. Thank you to everyone who participated in creating a fun Halloween event for our community.

As Detroit Mercy approaches its 150th anniversary, the University stands at a powerful inflection point 鈥� not only to celebrate its legacy but to re-imagine how different groups of actors can represent and amplify a听new brand.

The University鈥檚 strength has always existed in Community with a capital C: students who serve, faculty who inspire, alumni who lead and neighbors who believe in the institution鈥檚 promise. Yet, while these stories abound, they are not always told in a unified, intentional or visible way. In addition, there are some negative legacy stereotypes which have yet to be put to bed.

The Marketing & Communications Department, in consultation with GreenHouse::Innovation, will convene a fall 2025 Marketing Research Roundtable to close that gap by co-creating a shared understanding of what it means to 鈥渂e Detroit Mercy鈥� 鈥� and to empower every participant to act as a storyteller, advocate and ambassador in respective circles of influence.

We will hold a strategy roundtable session for students on Wednesday, Nov. 12, from 8:15 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the Student Union, Room 201, on the McNichols Campus. We are seeking a total of 25 current students to participate in this half-day session. A continental breakfast will be available starting at 8:15 a.m., as well as a boxed lunch from Subway at noon.

Participants should expect and plan to attend the entirety of the session and freely contribute their thoughts, ideas and suggestions. If you are interested in attending, please email your confirmation to erwingj@udmercy.edu听by Nov. 5.听Please note that we will stop taking registrations once we hit 25 attendees.

For more information about the branding effort or to leave suggestions and comments, please visit our New Brand for the Future website today.
