Stephen Hess, SJ currently serves as the Vice-President for Mission & Ministry at Rockhurst University. He has extensive administrative, ministerial, and teaching experience at numerous Jesuit universities. He also enjoyed serving in parish ministry and working with refugees in Nairobi. Stephen earned his PhD in Higher Education from Boston College where his dissertation focused on the peer culture of undergraduates from working class backgrounds attending private universities. He is a proud native of Anaconda, MT where he grew up among role models of faith that still have a profound influence on him. He met the Jesuits during his first year of college at the University of Montana and entered the USAWest Province in 1982. His current role at Rockhurst reminds him of the sacredness of Jesuit higher education and Ignatian spirituality.
