Students who subscribe to this view want to be equipped with well-honed professional and technical skills in order to compete in the market and secure one ofthe relatively scarce fulfilling and lucrative jobs available. This is the success which many students (and parents!) expect. All American universities, ours included, are under tremendous pressure to optentirely for success in this sense. But what our students want - and deserve - includes but transcends this 'worldlysuccess' based on marketable skills. The real measure ofourJesuit universities lies in who our students become. For four hundred and fifty years, Jesuit education has sought to educate 'the whole person' intellectually and professionally, psychologically, morally 'llld spiritually. But in the emerging global reality, with its great possibilities and deep contradictions, the whole person is different from the whole persoll of the counter Reformation, the Industrial Revolution, or the 20th Century. Tomorrow's 'whole person' cannot be whole without an educated awareness ofsociety and culture with which to contribute socially, generously, in the reaJ world. T'omnrrow's whole person must have, in brief, a well-educated Rell. Peta-H'lIIs f(u!uen!hlch, S.j.
