Network: Not just a trendy word.

What an interesting way that numbers allow us to gain some insight into who we are and how we work. As each region shares some of the numbers of students, schools, Jesuits, languages, and tuition differentials in our respective regions, the picture of our global network is beginning to form more clearly. Once we clarified that women are worth thrice as much, and part-time Jesuits are sometimes only valued as .5 a person, the room's laughter showed that solidarity was shared in that calculus. As we hear each representative describe contexts, it's easy to see how we are here to work together. What do you see as significant commonalities?
