“What drew me to Loyola is its emphasis on the Jesuit value of cura personalis (care for the whole person). Only through a holistic education—one that serves mind, body, and soul—can true achievement be attained.”

“Loyola’s core values—educating the whole person, service, leadership, justice, integrity, diversity (just to name a few!)—have allowed me to create purpose and meaning in my life. I was able to take profound personal self-inventory to become clear on where I was stuck and how to move forward with confidence, compassion, and creativity.”

“I hope students leave my classes with bigger, broader questions about oppression in schools and classrooms, and I hope they continue developing ideas and plans about how to confront and disrupt these issues.”
