When we started Colleagues in Jesuit Business Education (CJBE), we decided to address four general themes that could infuse the Jesuit mission into business education: (1) faith/spirituality, (2) service (particularly service learning), (3) justice/social respon- sibility, and (4) business/professional ethics. Over the course of time, a fifth theme was added: personal identity. I thought it might be helpful to summarize some of the recurrent points made in each of these thematic areas throughout the last eleven years.
