Pasquerilla West Hall
Established in 1981, Pasquerilla West is one of two residence halls made possible by the generosity of Frank and Sylvia Pasquerilla and constructed with the specific intention of housing female undergraduate residents. At the time, their donation was the largest in Notre Dame history to be given by a living person. During the spring semester, PW hosts its annual spirit week, Queen Week, in which each section competes in various events to crown a first-year student “Queen.” The PW color is purple and residents proclaim their motto, “Peace, Love, P-Dub,” wherever they go.

Annie Boyle
Annie received both her bachelor's degree (Program of Liberal Studies) and Master of Theological Studies from the University of Notre Dame and cherishes these experiences of Holy Cross-guided education and formation. After finishing her undergraduate degree, Annie spent a year serving with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps Northwest in Spokane, Washington before returning to Notre Dame for continued studies in Theology. Prior to becoming a rector, Annie worked for numerous years as a campus minister at the University of Portland where she enjoyed planning retreats, supporting student faith-sharing communities, and providing spiritual mentorship. Annie loves catching up over coffee, writing, and being outside in all seasons.
