The sesquicentennial anniversary of the founding of Boston College provides an occasion to reflect on the University’s commitment to cultivate the human person as a field of possibility. A Jesuit education not only calls for the cultivation of the mind, but also of the heart, the soul, and the imagination. Hence, a Jesuit university fundamentally concerns its operations with that intimate relation between the human person as a field of possibility and the meaning of life, the good life, and eternal life.
