Crisis: Catholic Colleges· at· Crossroads .'
Catholic or Secular- Which, Why?
Almost every edition of the daily newspaper carries a story relating to changes and adjustments taking place in some Catholic col leges. Many Catholics are

wondering what is happen ing 'and why. It is true that Vatican Council IT called for the laity to play an ever more active role in every part of the Church's work. : Some people feel that one way in which this can be. done is to have laymen and laywomen take over one or ahother Catholic college com pletE~ly - with general policy decided by lay trustees, with the administration handled totally by lay ,people, with a faculty composed of laymen and laywomen. A priest or nun or br~ther would ei~her not be included on the fac ulty or would be there as simply another faculty mem ber with no special preroga tives or voice. in college matters. , .

adolescent boys with adjustment problems will be opened here by Dayton Catholic Charities. Father James H. Garland, charities director, said the home will be for boys in the 14 to 1'1 age group who ,are "experiencing adjustment problems requiring removal from their own homes." Four boys will be at the home when it begins operations but the number will eventually in crease to eight. Operating ex penses for the home, the only one of its kind in the Dayton area, will come through the United Fund. Catholic Charities has rented a 12-room home which will be staffed by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Guerin. The Guerins will serve as house parents under super vision of Paul F. Merrick, a group worker from Catholic Charities. According to Father Garland, boys who will benefit from the type of progJ:am offered include those who cannot remain in their own home, yet have close family ties that would prevent placement with, a substitute ,fam ily; boys who have had emotion ally daqlaging experiences e,ither in their own home or in a foster home and are unable to move into a family environment; older adolescents seeking to become independent, and boys who need gradual readjustment from insti tutional living into a more fam ily-like setting.

Co! ~eges Fo~ !ow8ra9 Web$tretr WORCESTER . '(NC) - The ehairman of the Commission of .Jesuit College Presidents in the United States does not think that many Catholic colleges will fol low the lead of Webster College, Webster Groves, ·Mo., and "secu
larize" their institutions. Father Raymond J. Swords, S.J., president of the College of the Holy Cross here, said that he knows Miss-formerly Sister Jacqueline Grennan, pre!lident of Webster, to be a "very capable and very persuasive woman." . "I admire her .ability and re spect her opinion," he said, "but I do not agree with it." Father Swords told the Cath olic Free Press, Worcesl:er dio cesan news'paper, that he did not know what Miss Grennan's expe rience has been with ecclesiasti cal authorities, "and without such information I am not in a posi tion to comment directly on her statements regarding juridical control by the Church." Nonetheless, Father Swords said, "I can see no difficulty on the theoretical plane." Miss Grennan said the princi pal reason she had recommended that. the Sisters of Loretto give up ownership of Webster College was because "the very'nature of higher education was opposed to juridical control by tile Church." Father Swords did not deny that Catholic colleges might ex perience some outside pressures, but he said they were not the only ones who suffer in this regard. "State un iversities, for exam ple," he commented, "con:;tantly experience severe pressul'() from legislatures and other groups. This thing called 'juridical con trol' can be greatly overempha sized." The decisions made at Webster, he said, reflected one answer to the dilemmas facing C:lltholic higher education today. But he 'added, "I would surmise that very few will follow this alter . native.;' All higher {)ducation today, :he continued, both secular and , religiously-oriented, is going 'through a period of "incl'(ldible and unprecedented chan.g;e. It is a period of severe strain and .scrutiny. Cathoiic institutions because of their own particular problems are going thl'Ough an extremely.lnteresting and stimu lating, but trying, period." ""Ve are all examining new approaches," Father Swords said, "and initiating experiments that would never have been con isidered as short a time as a dt' ~ade ago." . But he said he thinks "the majority of Catholic colleges will decide to keep their distinc ,tive objectives··-that· is, to pro vide an educational ex peri ence which combines intellectual de :velopmcnt of high quality with 'a maxim'um OPpo)'tunity for spir ~itual growth in the Christian at mosphere." This can tbe done, he addeo,
".
only "if greater assistance and support and participation in policy-making is forthcoming from laym.en who are as ·dedi _cated to the achievement -of these objectives, as the various religious orders have been.'~ Greater 'lay 'participation ·can be achieved in several ways, Father Swords said. TM first alternative is one which ·he thinks the majority of Catholic colleges ahd universities will . choose-:"that while the institu tion continues as 'Catholic,' in the sense -that it remains the direct concern of a religious order or diocese, responsibilities for ownership, management, and basic policy formatiori will be assumed jointly and coopera tively by Religious and laity to gether." A second possibility,' Father
Swords said, "is emerging, in
Canada and may be attempted ,by
some institutions in the United
States. In this pattern.a Catholic
college becomes part of a large
secular institution, thus -preserv
ing much of its original character
and purpose, but being 'strength
ened by the greater, J1esour.ces
available in'a university .c.om
plex."
"Some others,". he said, "may choose· the 'alternative Webster College has chosen and ··become private, secular colleges in ,no way legally related to a religious congregation or diocese." Father Swords said the reasons for these developments in the governing of Catholic institutions are many. "For one thing," ·he said, "the Danforth Foundation, in a recent study of religiously oriented institutions throughout theq>Untry, came to the conclu sion that one of the greatest needs of these institutions is stl'onger trustee l~adership." A second reason, Father Swot'ds said, "is that there ·needs to be a more C:, .. ::ut -distinction between policy-making .and .ad ministrative bodies in Catholic colleges' and universities."· . Third, . he said, "the Vatican _ council has urged the ,participa tion of the laity on the policy making level in .all areas. in which they are competent-and we must admit their special com petency in the field of educa tion." "This is not to' mention at aU," Futher Swords added, "that' the institutions potential influence and resources are strengthened by broadening the base of trus tee responsibility."

Seeks to Abolish Word 'Missions'

Pamphlets Fwght .·Anti·Semiti~m
,~
ST. LOUIS (NC)-The new na tional director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith has fixed one objective. "The word 'mission' is an un happy designation and it will be changed. It smacks too 111uch of religious colonialism at a time when the principal aim of the so ciety is to foster a native pas toral clergy," said Msgr. Edward T. O'Meara, who served as the . society's assistant national direc tor from 1956 to 1960. Following Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, now head of the Roches ter, N. Y., diocese, in the direc tor's post will not be easy, the monsignor admitted in an inter view. He said: "Bishop Sheen did great things during his ten ure as national director, the most important being that he put the missions on the m-ap". He cred ited the bishop's magnetic per sonality with getting the pub licity that helped in the office. The monsignor, who has been rector of the St. Louis Cathedral here ferr the last 10 months, said the work of fostering a native clergy is a principal objective of the society because it is "obvi ously the thing which assures the continuity of the Church in the area that is now considered mission territory. ''This does not mean that the Church is unconcerned with the poor of these lands, with their happiness and improving their lot," he said. "Obviously the Church is interested in these things, but it is equally obvious that the Church cannot render these set'vices before it exists."

THE ANCHOR-Diocese of Fall River-Thurs., Jan. 26, 1967
By What Authority? Webster College in Missouri w~s established in 1915 as a Catholic college conducted by the Sisters of Loretto. For all=> these years the Sisters have been pouring their efforts' into the college and have received' support for it precisely, because it was what it was. Now the former president of the college - a religious who has been djs pensed from her vows and is now a lay woman - is pro ceeding to transform the college i~to a secular college. By what authority? One only hopes that the college is not making a mis take. Miss Grennan, who is presiding over the transforma tion, must be very Bure of herself in making this change. ' Or else the whole, matter smacks of great arrogance, for it is n~ easy thing to sweep away fifty years and chart~r' not only a new COUrBe hut a coure with new goals. The saine situation prevails in varying degrees as re gards St. John's University in New York and even at Catholic University in Washington. Objections are \>eing rai,sed against both institutions because they are Catholic, and -are carrying on hiring policies with this in view-that the goals of a Catholc college are to preseve and strengthen the faith as well as provide intellectual challenge and VQcational competence.

Lawyers Debate NEW YORK (NC)-Is publie aid to private schools a legiti mate means of advancing the public goal of better education for all, or is it rather an illegal raid on the public coffers in the interest of the few? . This question-the subject of a score of law suits throughout the United States in recent years -is debated by two of the na tion's most prominent constitu tional lawyers and partisans for these opposing views in the Jan. 21 issue of The Saturday Review magazine. William B. Ball, general coun sel to the Pennsylvania Catholic Conference, attacks the current legal campaign against pri vat2 sch61 aid as being conducted by . proponents of "an extremist view of the principle of church state separation" and as "a ~is turbing survival of America'll' long history of religious preju dice." His opponent - both in the magazine and in litigation - ill Leo Pfeffer, special counsel to the Ame:rican Jewish Congress, who charges that government aid to private schools promotes law lessness (because it is illegal), discriminatory and divisive (pd vate schools are a havp-- for those who don't want integra tion). Ball and Pfeffer met head-om last April when they argued the merits of Pennsylvania's school bus Jaw before the state supreme court· And last week the court said Bali won-it upheld the consti tutionality of the law, under which private school students are given tides over public school bus routes,

In fact, three should be the minimum nurriber that any girl takes with her, along with at least one cover-up or beach robe to slip on over them, as most hotels wil,l not even allow guests ,to walk through the lobby in a bathing suit." The climate in Puerto Rico is quite warm, I learned, much warmer than that of either Flor ida or Bermuda, so cool, wrinkle-. free, packable cotton knit shifts would be perfect for the 76 to 81 degree heat expected in Febru..: ary. .

E"joyment of Foreign Foods Adds Pleasure to Travel
Priest Praises Religious Life
By Joe and Marilyn Roderick My conception of & rock garden determines to. a large extent what plants I will use in mine, and this will vary with each gardener, In describing how one should layout such & garden, I mentioned that one should make it as informal as possible and this holds get a decent Americlm steak in true for the plants one in- Paris or that a continental tends to use in the garden. breakfast couldn't take the place Again, however, I must of their favorite ham and eggs. Itross that I profer a ratheJ:' disintegrated informal rock gal'den and this is largely up to the indiTidual gardener. I started a small rock garden last SummeJ:' with the intention of enlarging it each yea:r. I began 'With plants I had on hand and a few inexpensive ones :from mail order nurseries. To start I planted some Ajuga (also called ehicken-feet or buglewort). This abiquitous little plant is pretty in a quiet way, but is also functional in that it grows undeJ:' the most adverse conditions and in addition is m&n'elous as a soil ~taineJ:'. A new gal'den, espeeially one on a slope, is liable to lose a \great deal of topsoil over the WInter and in early Sprin, and therefore it Is • good idea to lIet out plants which will hold lIOil in place. III addition to the Ajuga, I planted periwinkle, basket-Qfaold, Solomon's Seal, ereeping phlox, and euonymw. Tbese are all 10.... - growing, sprawling plants whieh are well-suited to a rock garden. But primarily I was in~rested in getting a mbIIbntial cover with a touch Df lteight in the garden. As time coes on I will most likely eliminate a few r)f the ground COVel'S and replace them wIth more compact showy plants. With the mail order companies I invested a small llInOunt of m<:>ney in eady tulips (a gl'and total IJf 12 in all), some dwarf iris and sevenll day lilies which I d" not have in my own garden. 'l'his is rat1ler a tiDlid Itart tmt the I;ew catalogs are in now, lJO additio~ will probably be :fa$! and furious onee the Winter passes and 1 make the CW'rec_ f;ions in the layout of the ,arden which wiD. be dictated by the 8easonal wear and tear after tbe IPOW and cold have passed.
Possible purchalles include a dwarf rhododendron that I have admired for some time, • few primroses, some dwarl roses and plenty of cushion mums. AU these are to be planted at random $0 that the total garden is aecondary to the indivIdual flower. This is where I differ with the experts. In my view the rock garden is the one place in the garden where an individual bloom should take precedence I'veI' the whole. This is the place where the cherished little flower which would ·be lost in • bi/{ bed or would be overWhelmed by a tea rose has a ehance to shine even in if be tucked in a crack between two rocks. .. tile Kite1lea
When I was doing the I'eSeareh fer this week'$ fashion aJ:'tide ... resort wear I became II bit envious of thO$C who could leave lkeary .January and February behind and enjoT a change of BCenery if &Illy fOT a little while. One of the tbingst I know I would enjoy most about traveling would be the oppo-rtunity t. ..mple a diHerent type of cuiline than I'm used to. Too often we li'W! within the Jlarrow confines o:f those thIngs that we know and are familiu with, and travel forces us to be adventurous and sample the un1I6ual, especially in ,the food line. I have :frequently heard tJ:'av_ elen complain that they couldn't
~
The diet of a country and its re_ cipes reveal a great deal about its people and it seems to me a shame that if one is fortunate enough to travel he should miss a great deal by moaning about the meals he left behind. That's one reason I keep telling ,Joe that if he wants to take me to Europe he should do so while my digestion is young enough to enjoy all it offers. We can't really hope to appreciate European haute cuisine unless we sample it in the country of its birth, for most foreign dishes that have found their way into this country are basically peasant fare. Recipes such u boeuf bourguignon, bouillabaisse, spaghetti and meatballs, pizza, Irish lamb stew; and chili con came have become popular in this country because they al'C economical. go a Ion/. way, and appeal to our eating habits. Such gourmet :fare alO tortes, strudel, brioche, and chestnut purees have never gained the popqlarity in the United Statethat'they enjoy in the countries of their origin because their preparation is a bit difficult and they were considered luxury items by the immigrants that J\ettled here. One religious gl'oup constantly exposed to foods of other countries are the Maryknoll missionen and evidently they learn to enjoy the best of whatver the,. are exposed to. In a newsletter !lent recently tG food editon there was a gI'oup ef delicious~Wlding recipes recommended by Maryknoll Fathers. These recipes were hom .Japan, Hawaii and Brazil and they certainly indicated that along with a zeal fIJJ:' religiIJD, Maryknollel'S have a zeal for good eatin,. The follo....ing recipe was taken from the new.detteJ:' and m,. family found it an enjoyable way to eat an inexpensive cut 01. steak.

LOUISVILLE (NC) - "Religious life in the United States is not in decline," Father Kevin O'Rourke, canonist and dean of the Aquinas Institute of Theol_ ogy in Dubuque, Iowa, told more than 500 Sisters in attendance at the Instiute of Personality, Development for Religious, held at Ursuline College here. "Nor has it failed in the past," he stated. "In fact, as far as the influence of Sisters on education. it has been fantastic1Hly Successful." But times have changed since the ecumenical council, Father O'Rourke asserted, and Religious who respond to the council's call :for adaptation must change and continue to change. "We are not now goinc through a transitional stage between two static periods.. The Church in 1975 will not settle down and resemble the Church of 1955 instead of the troubled one of 1965. Rather, it will continue to grow and Religious must . .ow with it," Father O'Rourke l18id.

Conscious 011' Weakness Quoting a report written sev eral weeks ago to her national board of directors, Miss Mealey said: "NCCW has evaluated its structure. It is conscious of its weaknesses, which are inherent in any federation or organization which program for a large di verse membership. "A glaring lack is evident in not accommodating the indi vidual woman who asks to be associated with the NCCW. It is hoped that during this board meeting this important question will be discussed, and action taken on a pattern to involve the individual, who, because of her profession and temperament is not suited to a parish organiza tion, but looks elsewhere for her ,education and wants affiliation with a Catholic organization na tionally."

WASHINGTON (NC)-The National Council of Gath olie Women is undergoing a program of self-study and restructuring, Margaret Mealey, NCCW executive director, said here. Asked to comment on an article in Ave Maria magazine entitled: "Is the National Council of Catholic volVement in current affairs. "We are proud of our contri Women Obsolete ?" Miss bution to the poverty program Mealey repied: "This is, in through Women in Community
fact, a question we have been asking ourse~ves with persist ence since the beginning of Vatican Council II." 'Both Miss Mealey and Mar jorie Gallagher, author of the Ave Maria article, feel there is need for an organization such as NCCW. But Mrs. Gallagher, who is women's editor of the Observer, newspaper of the Rockford, Ill., diocese, says in Ave Maria that NCCW conventions and regional meetings impress her as groups that "still tend to be dominated by women who believe that 'Yes, Father' is the correct answer to everything." 'Determined by Bishops' That this leads "women who are accustomed to making inde pendent decisions" to feel that that "they can accomplish noth ing significant"; that the coun cil's membership of 10 million women includes women who may never attend any meetings. That NCCW's purposes and objectives are "largely deter mined by the American bishops or, at least, approved by them"; that the NCCW "is strong on idealism does not fail to remind Catholic women of their Chris-" tian duty and, in general, sounds very much like the occasional Sunday sermon on the role of Catholic women." "I can't understand why NCCW has not addressed itself more often to current affairs," Mrs. Gallagher declares. Current Affairs Miss Mealey said NCCW is continually striving to overcome the problem of "non-participat ing members." "My main concern," Miss Mealey continued, "is the fact that the author demonstrates a serious lack of information espe cially concernihg NCCW's io

Over the vest a parachute harness was fastened. That's standard equipment for the flight he made through heavy overcast above the choppy waters of the Gulf of Tonkin to the carrier U.S,S. Enterprise. While in Vietnam he made 13 separate flights within four days, nine by plane, four by helicopter. Wben engine trouble delayed the departure ofa propeller plane, he was transferred to a jet T-39. In 55 minutes it brought him 370 miles from Saigon to Danang, where 5,000 Marines were gathering for bis Mass.

WASHINGTON (NC) - Com.. paring the estrangement of the Christian churches to a disagree ment between brothers, Auxil iary Bishop John S. Spence of Washington cited the need for unity among Christians in fight ing enemies which "threaten not Catholics alone but all ChrisQ tians." The prelate delivered the keynote sermon inaugurating the 1967 Week of Prayer for Christian Unity here. Speaking at- the opening serv ices of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, the bishop warned against atheism and complacency as dangers to all Chrisians. He said that some dangers are obvious but that "others infiltrate into our midst in the legitimate uniforms ofl freedom of conscience, freedom of speech, yes, and even in the guise of the very ecumenism which brings us together." Bishop Spence noted that there are diffm"ences in Protes tant and Catholic notions of leadership, outlining the fact that "the Church is not a democracy. Her founder and head is JesUD Christ." He cited" the authority of the Pope and his commission from Christ to rule and teach in the church in collegiality with the bishops. He said that Protestantl>J could not be expected to accept this concept, but only to under~ stand it.

'"1 will remain as president of the school," Father Paul C. Reinert said, "The institution will continue as a Roman Cath olic and Jesuit university." Includes IProtesta'nts, .Jews The president said that he is now in the process of c:ontacting laymen to serve on the board, lIIe indicated that they will be members of the Protestant and Jewish faiths as well as Roman Catholics. Daniel Schlafly is Catholic. Five of the Jesuits on 'the new board will come from St. Louis University, and the others from other Jesuit schools.
The trustees, who exercise' control over school policy a!ld procedures, are now 13 Jesuit priests.

Since the founding of tile· uni versity in 1967, one-third of the members have been laymeo- and two-thirds have been Vincentian ! Fathers.

WASHINGTON. (NC)-A research effort designed to obtain facts about U.S. Cath olic higher education and chart guidelines for the future is nearing completion. . The study was initiated by the college and university depart ment of the National Catholic Educational Association here, under direction of Dr. Charles E. Ford, assistant professor of edu cation at St. Louis University, It is being supported by . a grant from the Ford Foundatiorl's Fund for the ·Advancement of Education~ .
A preliminary working paper centering on some of the prob lems facing Catholic higher edu cation was distributed to all Catholic institutions. of higher learning and to major religious superiors. It has been the sub ject of discussion at a series of regional 'NCEA college and uni versity' department meetings. The final report is scheduled for publication i.n the early summer. Father C. W. Friedman, NCEA associate secretary for the col lege and university departmeRt, said' discussion of the working paper has been ~'lively and con structive." Final Report "The study's major impact will be the effect it has on individual campuses," Father Friedman said. "Changes are already tak ing place. The working paper has stimulated extensive soul searching on many campuses. This in itself will make the study worthwile. "Also it is hoped that the.final report will furnish information that will help toward,planning on the national level." . While the working paper de 'liberately focused on' problems faced by Catholic higher educa tion, Dr. Ford emphasized that the final report will give full attention to the inherent strengths of Catholic institutions of higher learning. The annual meeting of the NCEA college and university de partment at Atlantic City, N. J., March 27-30 will be devoted to a discussion of the study and its implications for the future de velopment of 'Catholic institu tions of higher learning.

.Pope IncHcates 'Reform of Rota v ATICAN CITY· (NC) Pope Paul, in an address to the judges, lawyers anti other personnel of the Sacred Roman Rota, the Holy See's ap peals court, indicated that a re form of the Rota is under way. Most Rota cases concern mar riage. He expressed a readiness. to back "those provisions that would seem opportune for speed 'ing up the settlement of cases, for diminishing the number of those pending, for putting 4 brake on the artificial resump tion of cases that should be dis missed, for giving-if need be- greater clarity to the law ancl thus exclude any arbitrary inter pretation, and for giving them greater force, thus preventing any .abusive recourse to the judgment of the judge." The Pope spoke first of the "two pivotal points" of all judi cial work on lJlarriage problems. One is the "wider understand ing of' human affairs, without a preconceived indulgence t h a·t twists the objective outline of juridical r~ality." The other is a "firmer adhesion to the invio lable law which, by divine dis position and for the dignity.and good fortune of redeemed hu manity, rules the unity and per petuity of marriage and. there fore of the entire institution of the family."
