Blue Jays received an energetic introduction to the many co-curriculars Jesuit offers at the first of two Rush Days on Wednesday, Sept. 11, 2013. Several clubs and organizations set up displays in the Student Commons during lunch in the hopes of recruiting new members. Students spent the hour perusing the various tables and learning more about some of the more than 60 clubs, organizations, and teams. Rush Days continue when a new crop of clubs and organizations set up their displays on Thursday.
