Capital Campaign
The Prep completed a $30 million dollar capital campaign, which involved transforming the nearby former Jesuit Residence (adjacent to the Gesu Church) into a new academic center and cafeteria: Jesuit Hall and The Sauter Dining Hall. The new renovations are meant to ease pressure on the main academic building (which held almost 1,000 students, while designed for a smaller student population) and allow the Prep to provide more need-based scholarships and better implementation of technology.

Famous quotes containing the words capital and/or campaign:
“Had I made capital on my prettiness, I should have closed the doors of public employment to women for many a year, by the very means which now makes them weak, underpaid competitors in the great workshop of the world.”
—Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
“The fact that a man is to vote forces him to think. You may preach to a congregation by the year and not affect its thought because it is not called upon for definite action. But throw your subject into a campaign and it becomes a challenge.”
—John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
