Bannan Visitors

Visitors come to Santa Clara for a brief period to engage the campus community on issues and activities that support its Jesuit and Catholic character. They may instruct classes, present their research to faculty and students, arrange exhibits or performances, bring their spiritual or practical expertise to the campus community, provide resources for student organizations, and help faculty and staff through retreats and workshops.

Faculty, staff, and students at Santa Clara University are encouraged to apply to the Ignatian Center's Bannan Institute for a grant when a visitor they would like to invite to campus fits the Center's criteria for funding. See "Invite a Visitor" below.
