Dedicada a todas y todos aquellos estudiantes de la UCA que murieron víctimas de la brutalidad en los tiempos aciagos de la Guerra Civil y en estos tiempos de paz tan marcados por la violencia.
Que su sangre derramada sea fuerza y estímulo para construir un futuro donde la justicia y la paz se besen, y que todas las generaciones universitarias recuerden a estos jóvenes como semilla de convivencia en paz con justicia, en respeto a los valores del evangelio y en construcción permanente de la dignidad humana.
