      Many Americans may sadly be desensitized to mass shootings in the United States. This can be corroborated by the lack of surprise when the news of an additional mass shooting occurred this past December in San Bernadino, California.

      On Friday, January 29th, 2016, the Jesuit Swim team completed a very strong season and came home with two huge victories, winning the district meet for the second straight year over bitter rival Highland Park at Loos Natatorium, and dominating at the JV district meet at the Plano Aquatic Center in Plano. Head Coach Doug Moyse was very pleased with...
      "For you were made from dust, and to dust you shall return..." Genesis 3:19 Unlike a normal Wednesday at Jesuit College Preparatory School, the students, faculty, and guests all solemnly filed into the Terry Center to celebrate the Mass of Ash Wednesday on the 10th of February.

Every movement pained by his scars as he hunts for the revenge he deserves. I entered the movie not wanting to be forced to watch gratuitous violence simply for the sake...
      Hanging stoically over students passing through the hallway between the senior and prayer courtyards, twelve new banners display the names and lifespans of the earliest Jesuits. Among these banners, two feature portraits of St. Ignatius, founder of the Jesuits, and St. Aloysius Gonzaga, one of the order's first members. These banners will attempt to bring us closer to the...
      After having Barack Obama in the White House the past seven years, this country is in desperate need of change.
