The Basilica of the Assumption of Mary, America’s first cathedral, was the setting for the Baccalaureate Mass of the Class of 2025 on Wednesday, May 21st. As part of tradition, the seniors walk past the crypt tomb of Archbishop Michael J. Curley, namesake of the school, in their entrance procession.
