  • Rise of the New Catholic Colleges
    Rise of the New Catholic Colleges BY TIM DRAKE; REGISTER SENIOR WRITER September 23-29, 2007 Issue | Posted 9/18/07 at 11:31 AM The Register’s annual college guide (see special section) is bigger than ever this year. And it’s no wonder. A Catholic higher education renaissance is in the air, from the new John Paul the Great University in San Diego to Southern Catholic College near Atlanta. Sacramento University was given a donation of 200 acres of land for their campus, while Ave Maria University just finished building on its new campus in Naples, Fla. Even older colleges like Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina are seeing new programs — the school is now home to the Envoy Institute, applying Catholic teaching to cutting-edge issues. But at least seven entirely new Catholic colleges and universities have been created over the last few years. Their foundation has led to a debate about the nature of Catholic higher education and whether the newer schools are altering the landscape of Catholic higher education. “Growing a half dozen new schools isn’t going to reach many of the 85% of Catholic students who are going to schools that are not Catholic-sponsored,” said Richard Yanikoski, president of the Washington, D.C.-based Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities, representing more than 200 of the nation’s Catholic colleges. “From the Church’s point of view, the mission is far larger.” Yet, it’s impossible not to notice the fact that nearly all of the schools established since the Second Vatican Council embrace their Catholic identity in a way much different from the schools founded prior to the council.

As a result, the WCCC worked on behalf of the colleges and, in some respects, the University of Wyoming and private institutions to ensure student success and operational institutions. The WCCC worked across the funding sources of three primary components of CARES funding to focus on three specific phases of operations: 1. Mitigation; 2. Recovery and Re-Entry; and 3. Return to the New Normal. In order to achieve supporting the community colleges and higher education students statewide, the institutions had three primary sources of CARES funds: • HEERF Funds—Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund provided a direct distribution from USDE to the IHE equally split between institutional operations and student grants.

  • Ex Corde Ecclesiae
    Ex Corde Ecclesiae by Jeff Ziegler Really Enjoyable, Useful Commentary. Sign up for Catholic Culture Its today! In an April archdiocesan newspaper column, Archbishop Wilton Gregory of Atlanta, echoing the views of many parents, expressed concern about the effects of university culture on the faith of Catholic young adults. "Often the university campus," he wrote, "is not merely secular or non-sectarian so much as it can be hostile to or censorious of religious belief and faith." "Even some of our Catholic universities," he added, "struggle to retain their Catholic identity." This loss of Catholic identity at Catholic colleges across America is often traced to the Land O' Lakes Statement on the Nature of the Contemporary Catholic University, which twenty-six influential figures in the academic world signed in 1967. "To perform its teaching and research functions effectively," they emphasized, "the Catholic university must have a true autonomy and academic freedom in the face of authority of whatever kind, lay or clerical, external to the academic community itself." The fifteen years that followed witnessed the founding of several Catholic colleges that in contrast emphasized their Catholic identity. These colleges — Thomas Aquinas College (1971), Magdalen College (1973), Christendom College (1977), Thomas More College of Liberal Arts (New Hampshire, 1978), and the College of Saint Thomas More (Fort Worth, 1981) — were all lay initiatives. In the decade after Pope John Paul II's Apostolic Constitution on Catholic Universities (Ex Corde Ecclesiae), a religious order — the Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity — established Our Lady of Corpus Christi (1998), and that same year, Ave Maria College was founded in Michigan.

    WYOMING CATHOLIC COLLEGE A C ADEMI C C ATALOG Apostolic Blessing oyfully, I welcome the founding of Wyoming Catholic College, under the patronage of Mary, Seat of Wisdom. Here, our youth, the hope of Jour future, will receive a Catholic liberal arts education, ordered to the truth that will set them free. This will help prepare them to lead full and fruitful Christian lives, to serve as witnesses in bringing Christ’s Good News to our secular society, and, finally, to achieve that Heavenly Beatitude promised to us by our Lord. Therefore, gladly, I impart my Apostolic Blessing to the administration, faculty, and students of Wyoming Catholic College, invoking upon them the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Upon the Founding of the College, The Solemnity of the Assumption, August 15, 2005 Most Reverend David L. Ricken, DD, JCL Former Bishop of Cheyenne (Presently Bishop of Green Bay) WYOMING CATHOLIC COLLEGE CATALOG 2019–2020 INTRODUCTION Sometimes, on rare occasions, something genuinely new comes into the world. Wyoming Catholic College is one of those new things. It began in reac- tion to a failing culture and widespread educational malpractice. Back in 2005, the founders of Wyoming Catholic College put together a document called the Philosophical Vision Statement whose aim was to articulate what the College would stand for, and the first Board of Directors approved it two full years be- fore professors and students first came together in the classroom. This document continues to provide a source of strength and direction. What does it say? It points out in detail how contemporary education has lost its central purpose, which is to discover the truth about the deepest ques- tions, and even, worse, it has lost its trust that the truth is there to be discovered.
