Childhood Obesity Cover:Final 7/29/09 12:58 PM Page 1 Saint Joseph’s University, Spring 2007 Seeking Solutions for Childhood Obesity summer 2006 Graduate Student Recounts Alumnus and CEO Beats the Odds College Binge Drinking: Life in Iraq Still a National Problem Presidents Letter:Spring 2007 7/29/09 1:00 PM Page 1 FROM THE PRESIDENT When the editors of Forbes magazine went looking for their Entrepreneur of the Year for 2006, they didn’t look in Silicon Valley for a high-tech whiz kid or along Boston’s Route 128 corridor for a biotech pioneer. Their search took them to Montgomery County, just north of Philadelphia, where Michael J. Hagan ’85 is the chairman, president, and chief executive officer of NutriSystem. Under his leadership, NutriSystem has experienced a stunning turnaround, with its sales and earnings growth and return on equity earning it the top spot on Forbes’s list of the Best 200 Small Companies in America last year. The magazine’s October 30 issue featured Mike on its cover. The recognition was well earned, but hardly surprising. Saint Joseph’s University is blessed by the leadership of many alumni, who can be found in an astonishing array of fields, where every day they heed God’s call to go forth and serve others. These are graduates who are school principals and teachers, physicians and research scientists, Fortune 500 vice presidents and directors. They are attorneys and accountants and journalists; artists and singers and writers; university presidents, priests, elected officials and social workers. Their work may not result in feature stories in business magazines or coverage in daily papers, but in their own equally significant ways, they — you — are achieving so much that is worthy of celebration. What ties the work of our alumni together, regardless of their field, regardless of their title, is a special kind of leadership. It is a result of the Jesuits’ emphasis on rigor and service, combined with our deeply held Catholic values of intellectual drive and spirituality. Men and women educated at Saint Joseph’s, leaders all, change not only the wider world but also their own individual domains. They bring to their enterprises technical acumen as well as a worldview that encompasses compassion and ethics. And they change their organizations — from entrepreneurial start-ups to non-profits to corporate institutions to government agencies — in ways that deepen the human experience and transform the world into a better, more just place. This special brand of leadership is fostered by a holistic, all-encompassing curriculum that gives each student a firm grounding in the humanities, the natural and social sciences, and the arts, and that includes ethics and justice as major components. It is informed and inspired by a campuswide emphasis on service to others. Individually, each of these efforts is laudable and worthy. Combined, in reflection of Catholicism’s encouragement to seek truth and Ignatius’s call to find God in all things, they cultivate in men and women an inquisitive nature and a deep commitment to bring meaning to their pursuits. And so I congratulate Mike Hagan for an honor that is richly deserved. At the same time, it gives me great pleasure to be part of the community that includes all Saint Joseph’s University alumni. Your contributions reflect well on all of us. More important, they foster goodwill and justice, in the process providing a model for all to emulate. God’s blessings, Timothy R. Lannon, S.J.

As we move forward with this plan, few initiatives will be as crucial to its success as With Faith and Strength to Dare: The Campaign for Saint Joseph’s University. Earlier this fall, the campaign began in earnest with a weekend of events, including a spectacular gala to celebrate the progress made during the campaign’s silent phase and to anticipate the success going forward. A recap of this historic evening and more details of the campaign are conveyed in this magazine’s cover story. The campaign’s escalating momentum reinforces our goal of being recognized as the preeminent Catholic, comprehensive university in the Northeast. As the University’s first comprehensive campaign, With Faith and Strength to Dare is about fulfilling that vision as well as giving it meaning. Preeminence is about much more than being “bigger and better.” It is about offering the best possible living and learning experience, so we can provide to the world individuals who have critical thinking skills, intellectual curiosity and the moral discernment rooted in Christian values to create a caring and just society — to be men and women with and for others.
