Together, they have supported families seeking new beginnings, expanded educational opportunities and remained deeply committed to their Catholic faith.

Loyola University New Orleans and Ochsner Health have launched a new Executive MBA partnership! 🎓

The inaugural cohort includes a group of selected Ochsner physicians, advanced practice providers and nursing leaders who began classes at Loyola this August. The program combines Loyola’s graduate business education with the real-world challenges facing healthcare leaders today.

By meeting for concentrated Friday and Saturday sessions once a month, participants can strengthen their skills in business, strategy and leadership while continuing their important professional work.

This partnership reflects Loyola and Ochsner’s shared commitment to preparing thoughtful, ethical leaders who can transform healthcare and make a lasting impact across the Gulf South. 🐺💛

Loyola University New Orleans is helping shape the future of teaching and learning in an AI-driven world.

The university recently hosted an invitation-only AI Braintrust Summit, bringing together leaders with experience across organizations including Microsoft, Telemetry, UBS, Amazon, Coopersmith Law + Strategy, American Express and Moderna.

Participants joined Loyola’s academic and administrative leaders to discuss how artificial intelligence is changing the skills students need, the ways faculty teach and the expectations graduates will face in the workplace.

The summit is an early step in Loyola’s development of a multi-year roadmap for AI readiness. Guided by our Jesuit mission, this work will pair technological confidence with ethics, critical thinking and a commitment to using innovation in service of people and communities.

Loyola University New Orleans mourns the passing of Dr. Norman Roussell, a trailblazing university leader, mentor, and advocate who served Loyola for more than 25 years and became the first Black vice president in the university’s history.

As Vice President for Administration and, earlier, Executive Assistant to the President, Dr. Roussell helped shape Loyola during an important period in our history. Yet his greatest impact may be found in the generations of students he mentored, encouraged, and championed. He was deeply committed to creating opportunities for students and helping them recognize their own potential.

That impact continues today through the Dr. Norman Roussell Endowed Scholarship, established in his honor with funds raised by Loyola’s Black Student Union, a lasting testament to the profound influence he had on our students and community.

We are grateful for his extraordinary service to Loyola and for a legacy that will continue to inspire generations of the Wolf Pack.

Those wishing to honor Dr. Roussell’s memory may make a gift to the scholarship established in his name at loyno.edu/tributegift.

Today, we celebrate the Feast of St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, whose vision of faith, service, and education continues to guide Loyola University New Orleans.

As we honor this special day, we also remember Rev. James C. Carter, S.J., whose extraordinary life embodied the Jesuit ideals of compassion, service, and unwavering dedication to our university community. His legacy continues to inspire generations of Wolf Pack alumni, students, faculty, and friends.

May we continue to seek God in all things and live lives of service to others.
