Via Lucis Society
For Moravian University, the 26-point star symbolizes its motto, Via Lucis, the “way of light.” It embodies the light of learning, the radiance of joy, and the illumination our graduates carry into the world. Members of the Via Lucis Society are individuals, families, corporations, and private foundations whose extraordinary generosity has helped shape, transform, and sustain Moravian through the many transitions that brought us to university status. Lifetime gifts made for any purpose are counted toward the various levels of Via Lucis Society membership.
