Lorentz, BA, MA Marquette University, 2010 In 1926, the Archdiocese of Milwaukee opened its first Diocesan high school, hoping thereby to provide Milwaukee‟s north side with its own Catholic school. By 1984 the Archdiocese claimed that the combination of declining enrollment and rising operating costs left it no option other than permanently closing Messmer. In response, a small group of parents and community members aided by private philanthropy managed to reopen the school shortly thereafter as an independent Catholic school. This reemergence suggested a compelling portrait of the meaning given to a school, even as ethnic, religious, and racial boundaries shifted. Modern studies tend to regard Catholic schools as academically outstanding

  • THOMAS MERTON and BANGKOK a Few Reminiscences 8-15 December 1968 by Sister Bernadette M
    16 THOMAS MERTON AND BANGKOK a few reminiscences 8-15 December 1968 by Sister Bernadette M. Smeyers In 1968, I received an invitation from A.I.M., Vanves, to attend the Asian Monastic Meeting in Bangkok, from 8-15 December. The reason for my participation in this Meeting was that our Abbey had recently started a benedictine foundation in Bangalore, South India. I took with me one of the seven Indian girls who had received their monastic formation in our novitiate and who was destined to become the Superior of "Shanti Nilayam." The historic week of December 8th-15th has left indelible memories in my mind. The contact with so many (about 80) Cistercians and Benedictines from all parts of the world, with their specific culture and traditions­ all wearing the religious habit-was indeed a very happy and most enriching experience. The presence of Thomas Merton obviously added to the general interest and attracted a considerable number of Bangkok photographers and television men to the Conference hall in the Sawang Kaniwat Park graciously put at our disposal by the Red Cross of Thailand. It was remarkably so on December 10th when Father Louis Merton delivered his one-hour paper on "Marxism and monastic perspective" under the searching flashes of the technicians. The conclusion of his brilliant talk had a prophetic resonance: after having spoken about the Christian liberty of the Gospel, he added: "I will conclude on this note. I believe the plan is to have all the questions for this morning's lectures this evening at the panel.

    Let us remember: What hurts the victim most is not the cruelty of the oppressor, but the silence of the bystander. Concentration camp survivor Elie Wiesel Our “Catholic” Bishops’ Depraved and Calculated Indifference: One Devastating Result Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam Roman Catholic Faithful Spring 2003 Our Mission Statement Roman Catholic Faithful, Inc. (RCF) is a lay organization, with many religious members, dedicated to promoting orthodox Catholic teaching and fighting heterodoxy and corruption within the Catholic hierarchy. Our Philosophy While we accept the authority of the Holy Father and all bishops in union with him, we will not sit idly by, nor blindly follow, while many in the hierarchy allow the Holy Catholic Church to be torn apart and assaulted by the forces of Modernism, Syncretism, Heresy, and the gross immorality of some of its clergy. As parents and teachers, we will not allow our Catholic youth to be robbed of their faith or have their innocence destroyed in the name of “tolerance”, “ecumenism”, “diversity” or any other politically correct ideology of the day. We object to individuals or groups of individuals being given access to Catholic schools, churches, and Church property to promote any belief, teaching, or idea contrary to Catholic teaching as defined by two thousand years of Tradition and Church teaching. We expect every Catholic priest to follow the disciplines of the Catholic Church as he promised. We expect every bishop to do all he can to safeguard the souls of our children by exercising his authority to ensure proper teaching within Catholic schools and parish religion programs.

  • Student Life and Campus Culture at Depaul
    CHAPTER FIVE STUDENT LIFE AND CAMPUS CULTURE AT DEPAUL A Hundred Year History John 1. Rury hroughout DePaul's history, its students have contributed to the institution's distinctive character. Since 1898, as the university has changed and the campus has grown, a vibrant student culture has evolved. This was hardly unique to DePaul. In many respects, the university's students have reflected national trends in their activities and interests. But as an urban institution, DePaul's location and programs have affected the character of its students and their activities. Historically, Chicago has been a city of immigrants, and over the years DePaul has served the city's principal immigrant groups. It has ministered to Chicago's Roman Catholic popula­ tion, to be sure, but it has also provided educational opportunities for others. As constituents of an urban university, DePaul's students have reflected the diversity and vitality one would expect of a major Chicago institution of higher learning. This is an important part of the university's heritage. In coming together at DePaul, these students created a distinctive social world of their own that changed over time, often mirroring broader tendencies in student life. Still, certain features of the DePaul student experience were quite durable and helped to define an institu­ tional identity. While in many respects its students were similar to their counterparts at other institutions, there were aspects of life at DePaul that were unique. In part this was simply structural. Campus life at DePaul has long been divided between its downtown and uptown (or Lincoln Park) locations, with each site acquiring its own atmosphere.
