Santa Clara’s new President—a Jesuit always in motion—on noticing the things around us, looking into the future, and using tradition as a guide.
Sometimes the best guide is the thing you carry with you, and Leon Panetta ’60, J.D. ’63 carried Santa Clara values far.
If making—and appreciating—art makes us human, what happens when we get help making a masterpiece from something unhuman?
Matt Mason ’90 is the Nebraska State Poet. He finds home in the state of Nebraska and on an empty page waiting to be written on.
Race does not have its roots in biological reality but in policies of discrimination
Hear what some of our readers have to say.
We are called to build a better future by our Jesuit roots, and to fight for those affected by the climate crisis.
About that Kodak, and a vision for the future
As Akilah Monifa J.D. ’83 read at a literary event in February 2017, her future wife listened in the audience.
