How Jesuit Record Keeping Fuels Mission and Identity: A Conversation with David Miros
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu (ARSI) in Rome to provincial and institutional archives in Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Americas, these centers serve as vital nodes in preserving the shared history and vision of the Jesuits.This interconnected system of archives reflects a foundational Jesuit principle: the integration of local and global perspectives for the greater glory of God.It is within this global framework that the Jesuit Archives & Research Center (JARC) in St. Louis, Missouri, plays its unique role in shaping the narrative of the Society of Jesus and its various apostolates.Just three miles from the iconic Gateway Arch-a symbol of national identity that bridges the past and the future-the JARC stands as a through point for the mission of the Society in the United States, Canada, and beyond.Under the stewardship of David Miros, its director, the JARC preserves an invaluable repository of artifacts, historical records, and media that reflect the evolution of Jesuit ministries, particularly in the United States.To better understand how archival work connects to Jesuit identity and serves as a means of imagining the future of Jesuit educational institu-

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
