[quote=Anonymous]I advised a young man from SanFran to look for a college run by Jesuits when he described the kind of solid education he was seeking.
. He is not a Catholic --it makes no difference. He graduates this year happy as can be from Fordham in the Bronx.

Same advice to either  gal or guy. Find one of the few colleges/universities that still adhere to the Classical tradition --and these are few, but the catholic schools are among the few who have curriculums that are recognizably classically based. I admire that greatly.

They run the same kinds of high schools --the best there are. Their twin high schools and colleges run by the Sisters of the Sacred Heart --the Sacred Hearts as they are traditionally called are the best educators bar none. They appear never to have fallen for the lid-is-off mentality that has wrecked many a college/university that has let the students smorgasbord their way through.
