Editor's Welcome Letter

Suzanne Shanahan

Leo and Arlene Hawk Executive Director, Institute for Social Concerns, University of Notre Dame

In her welcome letter to the latest issue of Virtues & Vocations: Higher Education for Human Flourishing, Suzanne Shanahan invites us into a conversation about the meanings of work. Musing with Alain de Botton, Shanahan wonders not only how we select meaningful work but how we interpret labor we love. Read more of Shanahan’s welcome and the rest of the issue here.
