Question and Answer with Ms. Behr, Director of Magis 1. What is Mogis? Mogis works with students front backgrounds that has-c not traditionally been represented at SI. Many of our students will be among the first members of their family to attend college. We work with middle school students to get them ready for a college prep high school (like SI), and we work with high school students at SI to provide academic support and tutoring as well as social support and activities, we also hope to educate all SI students about different cultures as well os issues of justice in our society. 2. Why did Magis (the program) choose the word “nugis as the name of its program? Our middle school program was known as Uplift until 2000. When I started as Director, we had a chance to cxpaisd tlie middle school program and create a high school program as well. To mark tlvc changes, we decided to change the program's name to something that better reflected our new mission. Mr. Dullca liked all that “nugis encompassed, and the new name was initiated in the fill of 2000. i. How docs Magis improve SI? Maos helps students succeed and feel comfortable at SI. It presides an outlet for students to find a place for themselves here and to feel tlut their background and culture is valued. 4. Why do you think this program is so important to the mission of SI? Ignatius calls each of us to serve others w ith generosity and humility. Magis helps SI to nuke sure that we arc truly answering Ignatius' call to be open to all of the communities that surround us today. 5. How do you think the Magis program is making the future better for those in the program and those outside the program? Magis provides opportunity. What a student chooses to do with that opportunity is up to him or her. SI students hase incredible opportunities during and after their four years here. Magis ltdps to open up those opportunities to people who otherwise may miss put - students who hase never heard of SI, students who may not be able to pay lull tuition, students who would otlterwisc not receive college preparation and counseling. Magis also provides opportunities for all SI students to meet people bo are different from them (and discover everything that they really have in common) and to explore their own feelings about and comfort with issues of diversity. lOWOpcmns

St. Ignatius is a Catholic, college preparatory school in the Jesuit tradition serving the San Francisco Bay Area. St. Ignatius seeks to develop students who strive toward the Jesuit ideal of the magis: a thirst tor the more, for the greater good, for the most courageous response to the challenges of our time in the fullest development of students’ talents, and for a life-long disposition to serve.” The SI Website Dear Graduates, Today you become a part of a living Ignatian tradition. You will be part of over 14,000 living alumni just in the Bay Area alone. This is a rich tradition with one common mission. We have had the same purpose as Ignatius of Loyola in the 16th century when he founded the Society of Jesus - the Jesuit order, and that is to mentor young men and women, to get them to see that God has given them gifts, that they have an obligation to develop those gifts and use them in service to and for others. On the morning of October 15, 1855, St. Ignatius Academy opened its doors for the first time. The first students were aged five through fourteen years old. They studied Latin, Greek, English, French, Spanish, Poetry, Rhetoric, Elocution, History, Geography, Arithmetic, Bookkeeping, Mathematics, Moral and Natural Philosophy, and Chemistry. Our curriculum has changed but not the first intent, not the mission: to get students to recognize their gifts, develop them and use them in service to others. Isaac Newton was a scientist in the late 17th century who was responsible for the discovery of gravity and many other concepts that ushered in what we now call “modern science.” In a letter he wrote to a colleague he said, “If 1 have seen farther than others, it is because 1 was standing on the shoulders of giants.” If we share with each other our knowledge and experience and allow others to build upon our ideas we will, together, be able to progress further. If we are humble enough to learn from others we can continually improve. That is part of what this living Ignatian tradition means. If the mission of this school is for us to fully develop your talents and show you that whatever you will do in life, it’s best centered around serv ice to others - then we send you off to college and beyond with the seeds of service. May God bless you on vour wonderful journey. Mr. Charlie Dullea ‘65 Prini pal Opening V.
