Catholic Dorms

Texan A&M is going to open a dorm for Catholics.  Are there so many young Catholics who want to band together in their little ghettos over against the secular world that they merit a dorm at a secular school?  What happened to "University" which is not so much about studying many different subjects as about having a living experience with people outside your normal world.  Or is this a way to have a Catholic experience without going to a private, more expensive school?  Come to think of it,  one thing you will get at A&M that you won't get at a Catholic school like Notre Dame is good football.  A&M has Johnny "Football" Manzeil, while Notre Dame has whatever showed up at the college Championship game and got blown away.  So you get great college football, secular tuition prices and the chance to live with Catholics.

  1. Such a strange idea as universities are supposed to enlarge your world, not shrink it. Why are they so afraid?
