A handful of students flew to Los Angeles, California to participate in the Dolores Mission Trip. These select few students slept on the floor and spent all day dedicating themselves to serving the community.

The Texas Motor Speedway (TMS) seats over 190,000 enthusiastic and loyal fans who passionately cheer for their race car to win. However, on October 18, the hustle and bustle of racing paused for the annual Walk Now for Autism...
"Be a part of something great." Students will have an opportunity to do just that on October 8th, 2014 when Jesuit hosts its annual Blood Drive conducted by Carter Blood Care on campus.
