麻豆传媒 the Center
Rooted in 麻豆传媒鈥檚 Jesuit-inspired mission of seeking truth 鈥渇or the service of humanity,鈥� the Center for Social Action promotes experiential learning opportunities that draw together people from diverse backgrounds and into contact with the world鈥檚 injustices.
Our work at SLU, like the other institutions in the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities, follows the call of former Jesuit Superior General Peter Hans Kolvenbach, S.J.: 鈥淲hen the heart is touched by direct experience, the mind may be challenged to change.鈥�
