Loyola Dinner of Honor & Distinction

The Loyola Dinner of Honor & Distinction is a celebration of those who exemplify the qualities of St. Ignatius of Loyola and live as men and women for and with others.

You are cordially invited to the Sullivan Center at Creighton Prep on Wednesday evening, October 29 for the 29th annual event, when we will honor these five outstanding individuals:

Rev. John Jenkins,
C.S.C. ’72
Sword of St. Ignatius

Over decades of dedicated service for God’s greater glory, Fr. Jenkins, president emeritus of the University of Notre Dame, stewarded and extended his university's legacy of advancing the mission of the Church in the United States and beyond. Under his leadership, Notre Dame expanded its reach to a dozen international locations, attracted a more diverse student population and gathered incredible support for research.

One of Prep’s most ardent supporters and a constant presence at school events, Dave has provided exceptional service to his alma mater through his work on the Alumni Council and as a class ambassador and BASH raffle captain.

Bettie Spethman

Care, a commitment to nurturing others, and dedication to faith, family and community have been the hallmarks of Bettie’s life. From years on the liturgy committee at St. James Catholic Church to volunteering at Prep, caregiving for her husband Ed ’48 and working as a crisis counselor, Bettie’s lifetime of service is nothing short of extraordinary.


Jeff Hausman '83
Alumnus of the Year
