On today’s special episode, The Gail and Francis Slattery Center for the Humanities is launching the inaugural episode of its new Birthday Party podcast series where Scranton faculty and staff celebrate the lives and birthdays of intellectual figures important to the University’s Ignatian character and mission with a birthday party for St. Robert Bellarmine of the Society of Jesus thrown by the Rev. Scott R. Pilarz, S.J., President of the University, and Tim Cody ’21, a senior biology major with dual minors in biochemistry and criminal justice on the pre-med track. Tim was recently awarded a research fellowship through the Slattery Center, and he is currently working on a “Guided Ignatian Examen Art Experience,” a project for the center that will raise our students’ awareness of the significance of our campus’ art.
