A Scandalous Relationship: Catholic Colleges and Planned Parenthood

Introduction and Methodology

For 18 years, The Cardinal Newman Society has exposed scandalous activity at many Catholic colleges and universities. Although today we are beginning to see some movement toward a renewal of Catholic identity in Catholic higher education, serious problems remain.

Current public attention to Planned Parenthood—the largest abortion provider in the United States, responsible for extensive promotion and distribution of contraceptives—prompted us to perform a simple, public search of the websites of Catholic colleges and universities.

Despite the Catholic Church‟s unambiguous teaching on abortion and contraception, we discovered referrals to Planned Parenthood for “health” services, internships and fellowships with Planned Parenthood, seemingly boastful disclosures of employees‟ past work with Planned Parenthood, and other ties to this and other “pro-choice” organizations. The problems are spread across dozens of institutions, with occasional concentrations at highly secularized institutions like Georgetown University and Seattle University, two leading Jesuit institutions.

What is publicized on the Internet often indicates more extensive concerns hidden from public view, so while the information contained this report is shocking and scandalous, it is only based on a rudimentary search of college websites and likely does not capture all ties to Planned Parenthood at Catholic colleges and universities.

If one considers—from a faithfully Catholic perspective—the fact that Planned Parenthood is the largest abortion provider in the United States and a leading contributor to what Pope John Paul II labeled a “culture of death,” any relationship to Planned Parenthood or those who have worked for such an organization is simply unacceptable. In no way can the work of Planned Parenthood be considered compatible with the mission of Catholic higher education or the moral teachings of the Catholic Church.

Furthermore, any relationship to Planned Parenthood endangers students who may develop a sense of comfort with an organization that destroys innocent lives, ruins souls and plays a leading role in the demise of American culture. A Catholic educator who cares for the wellbeing of students would do everything possible to dissuade a student from entering the doors of a Planned Parenthood clinic. Nothing good can come of it.

Finally, the brazen manner in which Catholic colleges and universities are publicly disclosing—even proudly touting—their ties or the ties of their employees, students and alumni to Planned Parenthood is shocking. There appears to be a pervasive attitude toward Planned Parenthood that regards the abortion and contraceptive agency as benign. This attitude is simply inconsistent with a genuine Catholic sensibility.

We urge Catholic colleges and universities to embrace a no-tolerance position for any relationship with Planned Parenthood—including disqualifying candidates for teaching positions with previous experience working with or for pro-abortion organizations.

There are matters of Catholic identity which require discernment and which may not point to simple solutions. There is no such nuance here—Planned Parenthood is a serious danger to the health, lives and souls of innocent students. There is no place for Planned Parenthood on a Catholic campus.

Counseling & Medical Referrals

A program published by the Theatre School at DePaul University (IL) for a February 2004 performance of The Wrestling Season, a play about sexual assault, included a referral “for help or information” to Planned Parenthood in Chicago. The program advised, “This is a good place to call if you need information about birth control, safer sex or the morning after pill.” http://theatreschool.depaul.edu/pdf/performance/04TGWrestlingSeason.pdf

The Edgewood College (WI) Health Service offers a “sexual health” page that refers students to Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin for “confidential reproductive health and family planning services including pregnancy testing, contraceptive supplies.” The site also refers students to an “emergency contraception” hotline and informs students, “Plan B is available at pharmacies/stores staffed by a licensed Pharmacist. To buy Plan B, you must present identification showing proof that you are at least 18 years old. It is available to both women and men.” http://my.edgewood.edu/sites/services/hth/Shared%20Documents/HIV,%20STI%20and %20Sexual%20Health%20Information.aspx

The faculty handbook for the Women‟s Studies Program at Loyola University Chicago (IL) dated Fall 2005, lists “Resources in and around Chicago” including: “Planned Parenthood/Chicago provides reproductive health services, especially for those who do not have adequate resources in settings which preserve and protect the privacy, dignity, and essential rights of the individual; provides education which ensures an understanding of sexuality and its implications for the individual, the family, and society; and initiates, advocates, and causes to be implemented, public and private policies which guarantee reproductive self determination and the services and resources necessary to ensure it.” http://www.luc.edu/womenstudies/pdfs/facultyhandbook_fall05.pdf

Meredith was intensively involved in researching the relevant legal issues and meeting with many attorneys working on the issue, as well as obtaining testimonials from women who opposed such bans based upon their personal experiences. Meredith was also responsible for overseeing the legal and litigation department‟s submissions to PPFA‟s „Now What‟ newsletter, which is sent to affiliates, other offices, and organizations. For the newsletter, Meredith worked with her colleagues to prepare concise overviews of any news stories on interesting cases involving reproductive rights and education. Meredith was also given the responsibility of detailing her office‟s activities for PPFA‟s end of year wrap up book. In December, the Department of Health and Human Services published the final rule on „Ensuring that Department of HHS Funds Do Not Support Coercive or Discriminatory Policies or Practices in Violation of Federal Law.‟ PPFA had previously submitted comments on the HHS proposed rule in September, Meredith and her colleagues were waiting to see if the final rule incorporated any of the suggested changes or comments.

Conclusion

The types of relationships between Catholic colleges and universities and Planned Parenthood that this report uncovers are scandalous in that they publicly undermine the Church and her fundamental teachings on the sanctity of life.

The Catholic faithful have a right to expect that those institutions recognized as being Catholic by the Church will uphold Church teachings.

A Scandalous Relationship: Catholic Colleges and Planned Parenthood

We pray that Catholic colleges and universities will once and for all end the 50 year move toward secularization and embrace their special missions as Catholic institutions, which Pope John Paul II reminded us comes from the heart of the Church—Ex corde Ecclesiae.
