Liberal Boston College Contests Charge It Does Not Deserve Catholic Identity - LifeSite.com

BOSTON, August 31, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The work being done by the Cardinal Newman Society to re-establish a genuine Catholic character to those post-secondary institutions bearing the name, must be stinging academic circles long accustomed to having their own way. Boston College, the infamously liberal Jesuit school, has complained that it is being unfairly accused and is hotly asserting its legitimacy as a Catholic institution. Statistics, however, do not support the college’s claim, having shown that Catholic students attending the big “Catholic” institutions frequently stop practicing their faith, or lose it altogether when exposed to fashionable academic liberalism, secularism and moral relativism that are rampant in most mainstream Catholic academia.

It's about time. I have sworn off Notre Dame and other similar institutions because of their anti-Catholic professors and ethics. I really do hope that Boston College reforms itself and returns to its Catholic heritage.
