The Ignatian Center is excited to offer access to a virtual teach-in for students seeking an opportunity to explore the intersection of contemplation and justice based action. This Fall opportunity is hosted in conjunction with the Ignatian Solidarity Network’s Virtual Teach In on October 16th. Students will commit to participating with an SCU delegation, together examining how we can bring “Prophetic Resilience” to the SCU and their local home community. The goal of the program is to explore the intersection of reflection and social justice action and to build community alongside other justice minded SCU classmates. Students have the option to attend virtually on their own and check in with an Ignatian Center staff member after the teach in about their experience and how to bring it back to campus, or to participate with other students on October 16th at the Ignatian Center for reflection and dialogue between sessions. This year's theme for the Teach In is Imagining a Path Forward: Reflection, Reckoning, Kinship.

- Students interested in contemplation and social justice
- Students who want to connect with the Jesuit network across the country
