Father Byron also shares his extensive knowledge through his writing. His works include Quadrangle Considerations, winner of the Catholic Press Association's 1990 Book Award in Education; Ethics in New Corporate Culture and Answers from Within: Spiritual Guidelines for Managing Setbacks in Work and Life. Additionally, he writes a bi-weekly column titled "Looking Around" for a Catholic News Service syndicate.

He graduated magna cum laude from Saint Vincent College in 1966 and from Harvard Law School with his Juris Doctor in 1969. He has also received honorary degrees from the College of St. Elizabeth and Seton Hall University.

Founded by the late Deacon William J. Toth, Ph.D., the Micah Business Leadership Project is a series of seminars, retreats and informal dinners designed for CEOs and senior executives. The activities are facilitated by a team of nationally recognized religious and business leaders. Through the Micah Business Leadership Project, senior executives learn to anchor their executive leadership, extend their self awareness, creativity and vision and improve the ethical climate of their businesses. Upcoming events include "The Vocation of the Business Leader" on June 19 and "Corporate Transparency and Accountability" on October 29.

Dedicated to a dialogue between the Catholic intellectual tradition and all areas of contemporary culture, Seton Hall University's Center for Catholic Studies conducts an undergraduate degree program in Catholic Studies, offering a major, minor, certificate program and foreign study opportunities. In addition to presenting programs on faith and culture for students, faculty and the public, the Center incorporates the Bernard J. Lonergan Institute, the Seton Hall Institute on Work, the Micah Senior Executive Project and the G. K. Chesterton Institute for Faith and Culture, with its prestigious journal, The Chesterton Review.

Its attractive suburban campus is only 14 miles by train, bus or car to New York City, with the wealth of employment, internship, cultural and entertainment opportunities the city offers.
