Upon emerging from Thursday’s classes on Pascal and Kierkegaard, the 2021 New England High School Summer Program students were ready for whatever lay in store that evening.  

At Thursday’s class, students contemplated Søren Kierkegaard’s Fear and Trembling and Pascal’s famous “Wager.”

Wednesday held many novel and marvelous experiences for the students on the 2021 New England High School Summer Program.  

After Mass, Chaplain Rev. Miguel Batres, O.Praem. (’08) offered a blessing with a relic of Bl. Stanley Rother, an American priest who was martyred in Guatemala 40 years ago on this day. 

Having grappled with the writings of Empedocles, Democritus, and Epicurus in their second class of the day, the 2021 New High School Summer Program students spent the remainder of Tuesday afternoon in bouts of soccer, volleyball, and Spikeball.

This morning’s discussion centered around Sophocles’ Antigone, and the polarizing figures of Creon and Antigone herself.

After Monday’s second class, in which students discussed piety, the essence of virtue, and definition in Plato’s Euthryphro, the group made its way down to one of the campus’ athletic fields for the Section Games.
