Legend 62: Jim Burke, MA ’23

Legend 62: Jim Burke, MA ’23

May 13, 2025

As we celebrate our new class of graduates (welcome to the FUS alumni community!), we talk to Jim Burke, MA ’23 about the ways that Franciscan played a role in his faith journey.  The Catholic Studies program taught Jim about Mission and the fact that we do better when we start with the “why”, which gives meaning to the “what”.  Jim’s journey has taken him from the US Marine Corps to private equity, and along the way he has learned this: You can’t love what you don’t know, and the more you know it, the more you can love it.
