WELCOME
TODAY
to Jesuit Today. This issue provides a glimpse into the end of another outstanding year at Jesuit. It was a year filled with alumni achievements, student successes in the classroom and on the field, service to those in need around the world, celebrations of community, and generous support from our volunteers and donors. While space doesn’t allow us to share all that was good about the 2011-2012 academic year, we think you’ll agree it was a year that brought us many reasons to be thankful.
Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas
The formation of Men for Others is the defining trait of Jesuit Dallas. We share insights into how Men for Others are formed from the perspectives of three men who are both alumni and faculty members. As we celebrate graduation with the Class of 2012—recognizing the achievements of this brotherhood of exceptional young men and sharing their college destinations—we do so with confidence that they will continue to be Men for Others as they find their place in the world outside the walls of Jesuit.
