Summary
  • "Thy Honored Name highlights the confluence of two strong educational traditions - Puritan and Jesuit - and the growing appreciation of their compatibility. It is also an account of efforts to promote academic excellence without losing an authentically Jesuit identity in a region where many formerly religious schools have become secular.
  • The book will hold interest for persons who study educational and religious history, for individuals interested in the development of New England and Worcester, and for friends of Holy Cross."--BOOK JACKET.
