In Conversation: Honoring ideological divides on and off campus | by Conversations on Jesuit Higher Education | Aug, 2022 |  

How can Jesuit institutions effectively respond to the profound ideological division that threatens U.S. society today? What does it mean to embrace a Jesuit, Catholic mission in such a way that it can help our campus communities and our nation to navigate the turbulence through which we are living?

In early May 2022, three high-profile legal scholars and leaders in Jesuit higher education sat down together to address these questions.

Lisa A. Kloppenberg, now a professor of law and special assistant to the vice president for university relations at Santa Clara University, was then serving as interim president at Santa Clara, a role which she assumed after many years as law dean, then as provost there. Vincent D. Rougeau was completing his first year as president of the College of the Holy Cross, after having served a decade as dean of Boston College Law SchoolEduardo M. Peñalver of Seattle University was also completing his first year as president, a role to which he was appointed after serving as dean of Cornell University Law School.
