Age Quod Agis Age Quod Agis - Jesuit High School

him through his years after Jesuit first
touched him at Jesuit. The prayer goes
like this:
October Women’s Encounter (OWE)
Take, Lord, and receive all my
liberty, my memory,
my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
You have given all to me.
To you, Lord, I return it.
Everything is yours; do with it
what you will.
Give me only your love and your
grace, that is enough for me.
Perhaps the Suscipe will inspire all
of us in some way.
Sean’s mother, Mo, has compiled
two scrapbooks that tell Sean’s story
with love, a sense of humor, sorrow,
commitment to his memory, passion,
and are testimony to the impact Sean
has on so many others. One of those
scrapbooks lives at Jesuit. It is still
very difficult for all who read it to
do so without emotion, tears, and a
reflection on the “what if” questions it
raises. Mo and a small group of friends
have made several incredibly beautiful
quilts—each one made out of the
various t-shirts worn by Sean—and
each square of the quilt is separated
from the other squares by the elastic
bands of Sean’s boxer shorts. The
quilts are warm and personal—and
each tells part of Sean’s all-too-short
journey in life. I encourage a reading
of the article dedicated to Sean in this
AGE.
How his life and the life of Jesuit
High School have been fashioned by
Sean! We cannot allow our memory of
him to fade.
Thank you for all that you as
friends, benefactors, alums, and
parents of Jesuit continue to do for
Jesuit High School. We are indebted
to you.
Sincerely,
John J. Gladstone
President
The October 2012 Women’s Encounter juniors spell out the OWE letters (maybe in hopes they will
be caught by the Google-earth satellite!). In the background, the McKenzie River flows by, providing
one of the focusing backdrops for prayer during the weekend. Last October’s Encounter marked the
33rd year of Encounter Retreats at St. Benedict Lodge. The Lodge now hosts seven Jesuit Encounters
each year as well as a Jesuit Parent/Alumni retreat.
Vernier and iPads Team Up in Physics Class
On February 6, Vernier staff came to Jesuit to guide Ms. Jennie Cournia’s honors physics class through
their first lab using the iPad and the LabQuest2. Vernier LabQuest2 is a stand-alone interface used
to collect sensor data with its built-in graphing and analysis application. Using carts, force sensors
and accelerometers, the students created a graph that showed the relationship Fnet = ma, as stated
in Newton’s 2nd Law of Motion. Using the iPad allowed students the opportunity to modify the group
graph on their individual iPad and submit it to our learning management system, Canvas. Pictured are
