Many are upset about surge of faithful Catholic Colleges

From the Chronicle of Higher Education:
Who Is Catholic?
New conservative colleges say existing institutions lead students away from the true faith


It's a given but, as Pontius Pilate asked our Lord, "Truth? What is truth?"

Even better than this article is the transcript of a live, online discussion with David O'Brien, a historian of American Catholicism at the College of the Holy Cross, about the staunchly conservative Roman Catholic colleges that have been recently established in the United States.

In 1989 he was awarded the Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for Distinguished Service to Catholic Higher Education by the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities.

For those who are unaware of Fr. Theodore Hesburgh and his collaborators and what they did to destroy Catholic colleges in the United States, you may want to read about it here.
