校友服务团
校友服务团(ASC) is a 10-month volunteer program for St. 约瑟夫预备学校 alums who have recently graduated from college. Alums work in a variety of different jobs at the Prep and are assigned responsibilities in co-curriculars, 体育, 俱乐部, 撤退, 服务项目. 作为这份工作的回报, ASC members live in community together and receive housing and a stipend for food and other expenses.
The Emmaus Teaching Fellowship (ETF) 是预科学校的第一年. It was designed specifically for alumni who, 在结束他们的asc任期后, continue to discern a vocation in teaching. ETFs teach four classes in a specific department and take on at least one other major responsibility directly linked to the school's mission. They live in community alongside the ASCs and serve as mentors and role models for them.

ASC简史
校友服务团(ASC) at St. 约瑟夫's Prep was established in 1994 under the guidance of President Rev. David Sauter, SJ and Director of Campus Ministry, Rev. 约瑟夫 Michini, SJ. Both priests fondly remembered a time when Jesuit schools had many young Jesuit scholastics. These scholastics lived in community, 教, 指导, 领导撤退, 主持活动, 在不同办公室工作过, and contributed their youthful energy and enthusiasm to all aspects of the Prep. The decline in priestly vocations in the 70s, 80s, and 90s inevitably resulted in an absence of Jesuit scholastics.
The ASC was founded specifically for Prep alumni in order to help restore that youthful energy and enthusiasm formerly contributed by the scholastics. 现在是第29个年头, the program has been very successful in serving the Prep community and in nurturing young alumni in their continued pursuit of being "men for and with others." It has served as a bridge between undergraduate studies and all the opportunities and challenges of the world beyond.
ASC members have served the Prep by teaching in all departments, 在每个办公室工作, coaching/moderating countless activities, and leading Kairos and other 撤退. At the end of their ASC year, most members enter graduate programs or begin their profession. Many ASCs have remained in education with several working at 17th & 吉拉尔.
