Presenters include: Patrick Hayes, St. John's University, Staten Island, NY; Frank and Mary Frost, writer/director and producer respectively of Pedro Arrupe: His Life and Legacy, McLean, VA; William R. Burrows, Orbis Press, Maryknoll, NY; Mar Peter-Raoul, Marist College, Poughkeepsie ; and Jeanine Hill-Fletcher, Fordham University, Bronx.
