[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Liberal to conservative scale. Georgetown, Holy Cross, BC, and ND. Currently Georgetown and Holy Cross have non Jesuits - lay people
as their relatively new college Presidents.

Georgetown is more liberal than many secular universities. Catholic in name only!![/quote]

Yes, they don’t appeal to the type of people who’d vote for Trump because they follow the Jesuit ideals of social justice, diversity, and service to others.

They are very Catholic, just not the RWNJ handmaiden version.

Nah. I know it is noble on their part, but Campus ministry is top busy being everything to everyone with multiple faiths represented. Yes there is Catholic representation, but it is watered down like any other secular institution. The service opportunities are also watered down. ND and BC have extremely robust Campus ministries with great opportunities for students to serve right in their communities, elsewhere in the US, and abroad, while Georgetown is doing great service, but only in the immediate community (mimicking what most high school students do). Georgetown's president isn't even a priest.

In a recent post about students finding faith on campus, Georgetown featured multiple faiths, including an atheist. The Catholic student talked about learning about other faiths...not so much about what it is to be Catholic. That says a lot.[/quote]

Everything you’ve described is Jesuit. Not garden variety MAGA Catholic.

LOL Georgetown is the only school taking it to this level, which you may consider Jesuit, but I consider turning its back on its Catholic identity. Let's remember that Jesuit is Catholic.[/quote]

MAGAs trying to force their definition of “Catholic” on everyone else, including other Catholics. They do seem to struggle with the concept of consent.

Probably the same a-holes who hated Pope Francis, who was undeniably Catholic *and* Jesuit. 
[/quote]

Georgetown and its Jesuits have openly rejected Catholicism.

This is a thread specifically about Catholic universities.  Of course Catholics are going to point out the obvious about Georgetown and it no longer being a Catholic university.

Troll. It’s a thread specifically about [u]Jesuit[/u] universities.
