Petrik, SJ. 30/4 SEPTEMBER 1998 THE SEMINAR ON JESUIT SPIRITUALITY A group of Jesuits appointed from their provinces in the United States. The Seminar studies topics pertaining to the spiritual doctrine and practice of Jesuits, especially American Jesuits, and communicates the results to the members of the provinces. This is done in the spirit of Vatican IFs recom- mendation that religious institutes recapture the original inspiration of their founders and adapt it to the circumstances of modern times. The Seminar wel- comes reactions or comments in regard to the material that it publishes. The Seminar focuses its direct attention on the life and work of the Jesuits of the United States. The issues treated may be common also to Jesuits of other regions, to other priests, religious, and laity, to both men and women. Hence, the studies, while meant especially for American Jesuits, are not exclu- sively for them. Others who may find them helpful are cordially welcome to read them. CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE SEMINAR Richard A. Blake, S.J., holds the Gasson Chair at Boston College as visiting professor of fine arts (1998). Philip J. Chmielewski, S.J., teaches religious social studies at Loyola University in Chicago (1998). Richard J. Clifford, S.J., teaches Old Testament at Weston Jesuit School of Theology in Cambridge, Mass.

Our future plans call for a dramatic expansion of the building’s east wing to develop larger classrooms and a new counseling suite. • Global education and cultural competence: Through our global Jesuit educational network, this summer students are participating in academic, service-learning and cultural immersion programs in Australia, China, Ecuador, Tennessee and Camden, NJ. Last year, students studied marine biology in Belize and classical languages in Rome. In the next two years, they will study at Jesuit high schools in Ireland, Uruguay, Rwanda and Tanzania.
