The Companions Shell

The scallop shell has appeared as a Christian symbol throughout history, and it is associated with the pilgrim – one who travels a long distance to a holy place. 

The scallop shell also represents the founder of the Society of Jesus, Saint Ignatius, who considered himself a pilgrim. He led his co-founders, whom he called "companions," to further deepen their relationship with God.
As the students in our Companions program have begun their own pilgrimage, our "pilgrims" will embark upon an exploration of who they are and who they will become in light of the characteristics of the Grad at Grad. The shell bears five segments, & these segments combine to represent the five Grad at Grad characteristics.

Our shell is turned on its side to project the image of a beacon of light shining outward. The Companions curriculum will ignite the students’ understanding of their Ignatian formation. It is also our hope that they will forever embody the true meaning our Jesuit motto, "Men and Women For and With Others."
