About Rev. Kevin P. Quinn, S.J.

Rev. Kevin P. Quinn, S.J.

Rev. Kevin P. Quinn, S.J., served as the 25th President of The Â鶹ֱ²¥ from July 2011 to June 2017. From his first days on campus, Father Quinn demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to Jesuit Catholic higher education and a deep appreciation for the pivotal role athletics can play in enhancing both the overall student experience and the Â鶹ֱ²¥ community as a whole.

On May 8, 2018, the Â鶹ֱ²¥ dedicated the Kevin P. Quinn, S.J. Athletics Campus, its brand-new, $14 million athletic facility, in recognition of Father Quinn’s special interest in promoting athletics and his relentless support of Scranton’s student-athletes. Father Quinn strongly advocated for the development of the athletics campus, and his role in spearheading the fundraising efforts needed to make this longtime Â鶹ֱ²¥ dream a reality cannot be overstated.

In addition to his leadership in support of the athletics campus, Father Quinn oversaw the addition of Women’s Golf and Men’s and Women’s Track & Field at Scranton. He was also very supportive of the creation of The Royal Way, the Department of Athletics initiative that provides our student-athletes with a distinctly Jesuit athletic experience rooted in the religious and spiritual foundations of the Â鶹ֱ²¥’s Catholic and Jesuit mission.
