“We have American and/or Canadian students at Campion every year, either as full-time students or on exchange.”
@Laticia: See the article “Catholic Tuition Backfiring”. It details that a MAJORITY of kids at so-called “Catholic” colleges behave as immorally or WORSE than their secular peers. “Catholic” colleges are still stealing our kids from us just like they did in Sheen’s time.
Be sure to read the NCRegister’s expose on how you are corrupting your children by sending them to a so-called “Catholic” college: http://www.ncregister.com/blog/tom-hoopes/catholic_tuition_backfiring
Can anyone suggest which Catholic colleges might be the most economical fit for a 52 year old nun from Uganda seeking a bachelors leading to a counseling degree and a community of nuns that might provide free housing to defray the cost of attending? Please provide contact information for communities that might provide free housing. You can also message me through Facebook. Thank you!
If there are any colleges you’d like to recommend for our list, please let us know either in the combox here send us an email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
Wow, no Jesuit schools and no CSC schools. There are still some good orthodox Jesuits and CSC priests, but you have to look for them.
The other thing is that none of the listed schools have decent D-I football or basketball programs. You want to be able to cheer for your school during March Madness.
Jane, this is largely true, but you must remember Servant of God Fulton Sheen lived before the revival of Catholic higher education. Thank God for Franciscan University of Steubenville who led the reform! During my daughter’s Freshman Orientation, the theme was “ongoing conversion”. This school educates the mind, enhances the physical fitness and nurtures the soul while inviting the student to grow.
Won’t allow Archbishop Sheen’s quote to be published, eh? Too bad your censors are afraid to reveal truth.
Could only find 33, eh? Sigh.
“I tell my relatives and best friends, ‘If you want your children to fight for their faith, send them to public school. If you want them to lose their faith, send them to Catholic school.’” - Fulton Sheen (http://tinyurl.com/cel88l5)
