Introduction
Named after Athanasius Kircher SJ, a Jesuit of prodigious intellect in the 17th century, The Kircher Collection is testament to the aspirational scholarship that is alive and well at the College. Profiling key fields of academic pursuit and endeavour, it is more than just a compendium of student work – it is a manifestation of the desire to enquire, to experience, to comprehend, to analyse, to interpret, to explore.
Congratulations to the students in the Class of 2024 whose work has been nominated to appear in this edition.
