    View the magazine online at: Summer 2011 www.creighton.edu/creightonmagazine University Magazine Renaissance Man ........................................................................ 8 As he prepares to step down as president of Creighton University, the Rev. John P. Schlegel, S.J., reflects on his 11 years in the office, how his time as a Jesuit scholastic and professor at Creighton in the late 1960s and 1970s shaped him, Creighton’s Catholic identity, the transformation of campus, the University’s partnership with the city, and his love for and commitment to the students.

Tom Simonds, S.J., and law professor Catherine Brooks. Creighton’s Mythbusters.......................................................... 20 Can you travel forward in time?
