This talk explores how Jesuit educators saw the theatrical performance in Latin as a means not only of student formation but also of self-promotion and self-defense during a turbulent period in U.S. higher education and Catholic immigration history.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Loyola University Chicago commemorates its sesquicentennial with online lectures &#8220;with other great minds to reflect and address urgent issues of our time.&#8221;\u00a0 The Loyola 150 Scholar Series is open to the public.
