SILENT AUCTION

The Silent Auction

The Silent Auction will conclude at 10:30 p.m.

The Caritas Committee has carefully selected premium items that are made available for purchase by guests through our silent auction.

Goods and service packages have been generously donated by friends of the university.

The silent auction is conducted through computerized auction technology. Guests may bid as often and on as many items as they wish. All transactions are secure. Students will be available throughout the event to help guests check on their bids.
