The Living out the Jesuit, Catholic Mission: Diverse Perspectives Series program provides a welcoming space for employees of all backgrounds and faith traditions to share how they incorporate the Ignatian tradition into their professional and personal lives.
Diverse Perspectives Series
Goals
Focuses on how employees of various backgrounds (race, ethnicity, gender, ability, sexual orientation, etc.) and faith traditions (religion) incorporate the Jesuit tradition within their work at Boston College and into their personal lives. Members of the faculty, staff and administration will be invited to share how they experience ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½â€™s mission, which is influenced by the Jesuit mission and the Ignatian vision, by responding to the following questions:
To what extent have you incorporated and live out the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ mission in your work at the University?
How do you to articulate the Jesuit mission as it relates to the mission of Boston College?
How has the Ignatian vision enhanced your personal world view?
