Topical Article Discussion: Catholicism, DEI, and Higher Ed: Please click link to read the article: "Catholic Universities in the Crosshairs? Trump's Attack on Higher Ed Extends Beyond the Ivies" by Massimo Fagioli
Discussion facilitated by Dr. Martin Tracey
Our discussion will focus on how Trump administration policies targeting higher education pose unique challenges for Catholic universities as they navigate tensions between religious identity and government pressure. We'll examine Faggioli's argument that Catholic institutions need robust theological responses to counter what he describes as 'Trump's radical deconstructionism' of educational institutions.
