Correction to List of Pulitzer Winners
Last month's eNewsletter included a note about Bill Healy '01 who recently won a Pulitzer Prize in Audio Reporting. We also listed two other alumni, Jack Miles '60 and Marcia Chatelain '97, as previous Pulitzer winners, but forgot to include Jack Higgins '72. He began editorial cartooning for its student newspaper before he started freelancing for the Chicago Sun-Times. He became a full-time cartoonist for the paper in 1981. Higgins '72 was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning in 1986; he won in 1989.

Join Us For A New Movie Screening - TEILHARD: Visionary Scientist
The 2-hour PBS documentary on Teilhard de Chardin also features his Jesuit colleague, Rev. Pierre Leroy. It turns out that Fr. Leroy lived at 1076 W. Roosevelt--another reason we're hosting a screening! This could be a double "homecoming" as filmmaker Frank Frost was a Jesuit scholastic at the school in the 1960s and moderator of the film club (see the photo below).
Monday, July 29, 2024
Saint Ignatius College Prep - McLaughlin Theatre
5:00pm - 6pm: Reception in the McLaughlin Room
6:00pm - 7:45pm: Screening of The TEILHARD Project
7:45pm - 8:30pm: Q&A with Frank and Mary Frost, Filmmakers
