Abstract

What makes a Jesuit a Jesuit?

American Jesuit John O'Malley comments on what makes a Jesuit a Jesuit. His first qualifications are the completion of the Spiritual Exercises and a commitment to excel in whatever one does. Secondly, he discusses the corporate side to being a Jesuit and how honest and practical the community is – what he calls “the Jesuit style.”
