[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Georgetown, Notre Dame, and Holy Cross have most prestige among Catholic schools. ND is the most conservative of the three.

Catholics don't view Georgetown as Catholic.

Georgetown is a secular school that used to be Catholic.  Look at their website and social media.  Even Georgetown and the Jesuits running it would agree that Georgetown is no longer a Catholic school, but rather a secular school with a catholic history that is not part of their current identity.[/quote]
this one Georgetown hating pp comes in on every single thread .....

I am the person you are quoting.

I actually think Georgetown is a great [i]secular[/i] school.

It is just not even a lottle bit Catholic any more.  In fact, it mostly hides and rejects its Catholic heritage.[/quote]

My Catholic DC is a current undergraduate at GU. The Jesuits there stress interfaith dialogue and respect. At university ceremonies religion is frequently mentioned, but usually in the context of several religions, not just Catholicism.

My DC gets annoyed by her felllow students who sometimes rail against the school’s refusal to have an official pro choice group, birth control on campus etc.   DC says that these students seem largely unaware that GU is a Catholic school.

That being said there is a large and very active Catholic student group on campus. [/quote]
