Every year, Strake Jesuit welcomes back a small group of alumni who have recently graduated from college and have dedicated a year of service to the Alumni Service Corps (ASC). They live on campus, observe a class taught by a faculty mentor, teach one class, participate in retreats and service projects, and engage in various athletic and extracurricular activities.
