It is with great sorrow but deep trust in Our Lord and our Blessed Mother that we inform you that our beloved friend, colleague and professor, Dr. Brendan McGuire, passed into eternity early this morning. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him.

Note that these rules don’t apply to Catholic colleges refusing sponsorship for activities promoting other beliefs. That’s because Catholics do have a claim to truth about God, as opposed to secular relativist colleges that claim total ignorance. (I know where I’d rather study.) https://twitter.com/kevinjjones/status/1313193213700710400

Campus efforts to de-recognize Christian and other student groups might violate new federal rules.

These efforts suggest *university administrators* tend to be responsible for "political correctness" on campus, not professors.

Let’s change this, now! We can renew faithful Catholic education, or we can abandon kids to schools with no commitment to truth and human formation. @Newman_Society https://twitter.com/FrMatthewLC/status/1310634036092526595

I went to K-12 Catholic school & learned 99% of what I know about Catholicism outside that education (where the school was often not strongly Catholic). https://twitter.com/catholiccom/status/1310331112149798912

So excited about the renewal of Catholic identity in Boston’s Catholic schools! This is hard work, and even many practicing Catholics fail to understand why such measures are necessary. We need witnesses to Christ in every classroom. God bless @BostonCathSupt and his team. https://twitter.com/BostonCathSupt/status/1310557514002554880

Most religion teachers in Catholic schools are “Catholic” but we instituted a new requirement that any teacher who teaches religion must be a “practicing Catholic” in accord with the five precepts set forth in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Thread: 3/4

God bless Tom Monaghan, whose trust in God and devotion to faithful Catholic education have produced enormous benefits for Catholic families. @avemariauniv @Newman_Society https://twitter.com/avemariauniv/status/1310232803418812418

Ave Maria University@avemariauniv

We love Tom Monaghan! Ave Maria University wouldn’t exist without his faithful, generous “yes”, and we see his fiat bearing fruits in the lives of all in our community on a daily basis.

We want to know: if you could ask Mr. Monaghan anything, what would it be?!
