[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a top 50 school and it’s Jesuit. What’s not to like? [/quote] Is being Jesuit a positive?[/quote] new poster here Depends on who you talk to. I'm finding more and more Catholics don't consider it a positive (I'm Catholic.)[/quote] Conservative/“traditional” Catholics, perhaps. Jesuit schools tend to be more progressive, with a strong emphasis on social justice, open dialogue, and free inquiry. So, for example, they’ll allow pro-reproductive rights speakers to be invited to campus, might have an LGBTQ+ center, etc.[/quote] Bingo. They're a religious order that has always prized education. So you get the strong social justice component of Catholicism, along with full love and inclusion of LGBTQ people. They REALLY encourage critical thinking and avid discussion. [/quote]
