Tue, 24 Jul 2012 01:27:27 +0000 http://www.jesuit.org/blog/?p=6570#comment-14763 Since the beginning of this summer, I have been auditing a language course in one of the classes in the building where this sculpture of Fr James is visibly kept. Each time I pass by especially during break, I have always stopped to admire this great Jesuit guy. Incidentally today, I came across his picture with an article written about him and his great contributions to humanity. As an Education student I think it is such a great privilege that this interdisciplinary course that I am taking this summer in another department and school has brought closer to yet another great Jesuit of our time. God bless you Fr James. Since the beginning of this summer, I have been auditing a language course in one of the classes in the building where this sculpture of Fr James is visibly kept.

Skehan on a well earned birthday. An awesome person to be sure. Coincidentally, my father was named James as well...and my sister is a grad of B.C. (1960). Might we possibly be from the same clan? It would sure make me proud just to share the same name. Sincerely, Bud Skehan, Holy Cross '57 Congratulations to Fr. Skehan on a well earned birthday. An awesome person to be sure.
