When observing the typical conversations between teenage boys, specifically Jesuit students, politics usually isn’t a topic that one would generally overhear. More often than not, it has something to do with sports, girls, the obnoxious amount of homework, or the latest iPad game. However, this year’s upcoming Issues Day aims to become a part of all conversations. Headed by Social...
Walking through the hallways of Jesuit, one looks through the window of a classroom and sees a group of young men sitting at their desks. Clad in their sharp-looking ties and shirts, these young men listen to the teacher and diligently take notes on his or her every word. This image of the classroom setting has been a cornerstone...

The music at this...
