This course considers the historical, spiritual, and pedagogical foundations of Jesuit leadership by situating them in their historical and geographic context. The course begins with two weeks of online coursework, followed by twelve days of experiential learning in Spain and Rome where students immerse themselves in the key places that became the roots of the Society of Jesus using primary sources to critically examine the decisions and actions of the early Jesuits. Students will consider contemporary topics such as the challenges and opportunities experienced by administrators and teachers at secondary and higher education schools. Coursework features selected readings, workshops, presentations, and projects to be completed both individually and in small groups. Through this course, students will gain an understanding of the Jesuits' early vision of apostolic effectiveness and of the ways that vision has remained constant while adapting to various circumstances along the way.
