Rev. Patrick J. Lynch, S.J. (Religious Studies & Theology, A&S) is the recipient of a Mission & Identity Course Development Grant for summer 2013. Rev. Michael Tunney, S.J., director of the Mission & Identity office, oversaw the process that concluded Thursday, April 25 with the award.
Professor Lynch’s course proposal is entitled “Famous Jesuits.”
His course proposal will benefit our Honor’s Program students’ understanding of our Catholic intellectual tradition’s Jesuit history and spirituality lived out across the centuries and around our world. The students and Prof. Lynch alike will benefit from his professional development and his departments’ growth in this area central to our mission and values.
Fr. Tunney commended Prof. Lynch and his course proposal for his response to our college’s deepening appreciation of our Catholic and Jesuit ideals in the classroom as well as the countless ways it can take root in the bodies, minds, and spirits of Jesuits, our students, and our colleagues.
