More than a Slogan: New Perspectives on Cura Personalis

Thursday, March 23, noon–1:15 p.m.
Virtual event via Zoom Webinar: Register here (registration required)

Seattle University’s own Trung Pham, S.J., associate professor of Fine Arts, is a panelist for this Conversations on Jesuit Higher Education webinar.

From Conversations:

Care of the whole person—cura personalis—has provided a valuable touchstone in Jesuit higher education. But as a broad array of colleges and universities lay claim to the ideal of holistic education, what might this mean for Jesuit institutions going forward?

What particular resources can deepen and enrich our vision of whole-person development and care within Jesuits contexts? And what new approaches can help ensure that 'cura personalis' remains a vital tradition going forward?

Join us for a webinar that takes a critical look at a cherished slogan--and offers possibilities for ensuring that it remains more than a slogan.
