Explanation:
The Society of Jesus whose members are commonly known as Jesuits, is a religious order of regular clerics of the Catholic Church founded in 1534 by the Spanish Ignacio de Loyola. With 16 088 members in 2017 (of which 11 583 were ordained priests), it is the largest Catholic religious order today. Its activity extends to the educational, social, intellectual, missionary and Catholic media fields, in addition to attending 1,509 parishes around the world.
The Jesuits founded schools that were at first established around the mid 1500s. Those schools were generally to teach others normal educational matters that were also taught in other schools, but they also included theological studies in the mix. It was also required of the students to follow christian rituals (simple things like morning prayers). Catholic colleges nowadays still have similar practices.
