One person’s dedication can have a profound positive impact on the lives of many. 

On Nov. 5 in Manhattan, Regis High School recognized Rev. Joseph M. McShane, S.J., H’04, as an individual of that caliber.

Fr. McShane, the Superior of the Scranton Jesuit Community, received the Regis 2025 Deo et Patriae Award at a reception held on Nov. 5 at the tuition-free and merit-based Jesuit High School in New York. Fr. McShane led The University of Scranton as president from 1998 to 2003. 

The award is given annually by Regis, to “a person who has served Regis and the community in a distinguished capacity during the course of his or her life,” as described in an article on the school’s website
