FEATURED STORY
Tragil Wade-Johnson Summer Reading Program works to combat ‘summer slide’
The Hartman Center’s Tragil Wade-Johnson Summer Reading Program within the College of Education is working to
combat the "summer slide," when students return in the fall with achievement levels

IGNATIAN MOMENT
Ignatian Year message from Rev. Jim Voiss, S.J.
The Feast of St. Ignatius, the founder of the Jesuits, brought an end of our Ignatian
Year on July 31. Over the past 15 months, we have celebrated two important events for the global Ignatian
Family: 500 years since Ignatius’ encounter with a cannonball, and the 400th anniversary
of his canonization.

will thrive immediately; others will need more time to get comfortable. No matter
the pace, the next four years are an important transition to independent adulthood.
