 * What needs to get done to improve your page?
 * We need to add more to the Eloquentia Perfecta in the modern age section as well as the people of modern times section.
 * we can also find additional sources for verification
 * I want to add more to the Eloquentia perfecta in Jesuit colleges section and have found multiple sources in Fusion that I can use for it
 * Liam had sources to add to the history of Eloquentia Perfecta
 * I think some of the specific time period sections could be elaborated on with more sources, most are pretty short
 * Who is going to do each thing? Could be one person, could be a pair, could be the whole group.
 * Hersh is going to do research
 * Alejandra is note taker
 * Liam is communications
 * I'm helping out with whatever is needed
 * How are you going to do it? BE VERY SPECIFIC
 * Delete material from existing Wikipedia entry?
 * I don't think there is anything that needs to be deleted. Everything seems pretty purposeful and relevant.
 * Reorganize material on exiting Wikipedia entry?
 * I also don't think anything needs to be reorganized. It's all sorted by time period which makes it easy to find information. I don't think any other order would make sense.
 * We have lots of varied sources that could be used in different sections
 * not all being put in one place
 * A lot of entries seem really short and can be backed up by more research and/or examples.
 * Specifically the 1773- 1814 seems like just a basic summary could be expanded on.

Expanding on 1534–1599: The early Jesuit order and the first Jesuit school

The Jesuits adhered to Ignatius's meditative practices, the Spiritual Exercises and centered their lives on active service rather than subdued monasticism.

Expanding on 1599–1773: Ratio Studiorum and expansion of Jesuit schools through Europe

These institutions were enhanced by many influential mantras. Some of these phrases (and their direct translations) include Cura Personalis (care for the whole person), Magis (to do more), Nuestro Modo de Procedor (our way of proceeding), and Eloquentia Perfecta (perfect eloquence).

1900s: Translation of traditions into the modern perspective

While the Ratio Studiorum description of rhetoric emphasized only oratory and poetry, today’s Jesuit rhetorical education accepts the appreciation of multiple genres in different media. These rhetoric classes promoted both useful skills and cultural enrichment. It combined general ideas and stylistic practices from Greco-Roman culture and joined them with the learnings of the church.
