Neuhoff Institute Leader Selected for Grefenstette Faculty Scholars Program

IRVING, Texas (Oct. 1, 2024) — Jodi Hunt, PhD, executive director of the Ann & Joe O. Neuhoff Institute for Ministry and Evangelization at the University of Dallas, has been selected to join the Grefenstette Faculty Scholars Program.

The Carl G. Grefenstette Center for Ethics in Science, Technology and Law at Duquesne University aims to investigate modern technologies through the lens of the Catholic faith tradition. The Grefenstette Faculty Scholars Program seeks scholars from all academic areas to join discussions on the responsible use of digital technology and its intersection with religious or theological studies.

“I am excited and honored to have been chosen to be a part of this prestigious program, and I am looking forward to joining a diverse group of scholars from around the country to examine the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and the ongoing ethical questions that it raises,” Hunt said. “I am especially looking forward to learning about AI use in the classroom, research and everyday technological engagement in relation to the humanities and our human interactions.”

Hunt’s scholarly interests include Catholic pedagogy, catechesis and digital theology. As executive director of the Neuhoff Institute, Hunt manages continuing education programs in ministry.
