Age Quod Agis - Jesuit High School

Campus Corner
entered papers at the Northwest Undergraduate Conference
at University of Portland. Not many high school students
will ever get the chance to receive this honor. Reilly
submitted a paper called “Driven Stereotypes: The Need
to Break Away from Accepted Preconceptions as Seen in
David Sedaris’s ‘Naked,’” which was reviewed by professors
at University of Portland. He then gave a speech about his
work to the professors.
“I submitted and presented these papers mostly
because I really like literature and literary discussion” said
Reilly. “The conference gave me an amazing opportunity to
experience college-level discussion about a wide variety of
literary works and theories.”
Jesuit students have an innate desire to succeed.
Although some may judge Jesuit by success in sports,
academic accomplishments seem to take an even higher
priority.

Scouts Don’t Just Sell Cookies
BY THOmAS HeminGer ‘11
Being a Boy Scout carries connotations of tent building
and fire starting. However, few people know that there is
much more to those patches on their vests. Many children
join Boy and Girl Scouts in grade school, but only a select
few manage to continue through their high school years.
Senior Eric Walters did his Eagle Scout project at Jesuit,
collecting books in a book drive during lunch and break.
“Every Eagle scout has to do some sort of project in
order to complete the process,” says senior Dominic
Wilmes. “I built an outdoor classroom in Canby for mine.
It was actually a lot of fun.”
Kim Klein has been a Girl Scout since grade school.

Most people assume that being a Girl Scout is simply selling
cookies. However, Girl Scouts do much more than that.
“We work to make the world a better place,” says Klein.
“I truly believe that we do. There are centers all over the
world where Girl Scouts are making a difference.”
Last summer, Klein had the opportunity to go to a
London Girl Scout center, where she got to do things she
would have never had the chance to do, such as visit the
London Eye and see the Queen. Being in the sisterhood has
its benefits, and Kim wishes that more people would give
Girl Scouts a chance.
“A lot of people stop being a Girl Scout before they
reach high school. In reality, you get to help more when
you are older.”
Senior Hayden Haberle is no ordinary Eagle Scout.
This summer, while biking at Zigzag, he helped rescue an
injured friend who was badly bleeding. Haberle and his two
friends were able to help the Jordanian exchange student,
whose arm was impaled by a branch after he fell while
biking. Haberle was awarded the National Merit Award, one
of the highest honors for a Scout.
Scouts are often made fun of by their friends as they
get older.
“I just wish that being a Scout didn’t have a negative
connotation,” says Klein. “We are doing really great things
for our communities.
