[@jerryrobertson4422]

None of the Loyola Universities made the list of Catholic colleges and universities. You go to the Newman college listing website and you find about 20 Catholic colleges and universities and not all of the are in the USA. St. Ignatius must be turning over in heaven seeing what's been going on at the jesuit run schools. Only Father Spitzer out in Orange County. gets my money. Did that so-called jesuit in Rome say anything yet about the Last Supper blasphemy in Paris? Probably not since he's all into inclusivity as promoted by the devil

The moment our older son toured Franciscan U of S, he knew that it was the place for him and no other university would be the right fit for him.

Except it is rated academically in the bottom 1/4 of ALL schools. It shows its dedication to post Vatican II values, but not much else.

[@DanKuches]

​. My daughter is a senior at Ave Maria and what you stated is not even close. I'm not sure where the academia info you stated is coming from, but she has some of the best professors around. Now, for your second part of your opinion, this school is so far rooted in traditional values and yes, even the MASS, it makes Franciscan look protestant. TLM on campus FSSP in Naples where MANY students attend since Francis started his anti trading Mass campaign. The professors and the religious, including the Priests are all pro 1962. There was one priest there a couple years ago that is progressive, and he got ran off by the board, other religious and the students. My daughter knows more about St. Thomas than most N.O. Priests. So, yes AVE MARIA UNIVERSITY BELONGS ON THIS LIST. Please make certain you check your opinions, cite them, date them and back them up with multiple sources. I can tell you that woke kids are ran off quick, and that the majority of these students prefer the Tridentine and attend confession frequently. This University also is ranking much better than even 10 years ago scholastically, and there have been really high achievements scolastically, all while deepening the Catholic faith, and that includes the pre 1962 sacraments.

Jealousy I guess...

⁠I grew up at Notre Dame as a faculty brat. My husband and I are alumni. We still live next to the campus. Notre Dame recognizes Pride Month. When abortion was legal in Indiana , there was a student group that was available to provide transportation to the local abortion clinic. There is still a student group that sells contraceptives on campus. The administration is well aware of this. The administration attempted to provide a filter to keep pornography off the campus Internet but caved when the faculty raised cain, claiming they needed access to porn on campus for “research “. The Center for Ethics and Culture is great and the administration hates it.

I think most people don’t understand the point of this video. On one hand, some people think judge Catholic colleges solely on their academics and not orthodoxy while others make the faith of campus the only thing in determining a college to the extent nothing else matters. I think a school with both a great focus on the faith AND good general qualities of colleges should be what defines a good Catholic college. Not every Georgetown student will be a communist and not every Ave Maria student will turn out homeless. For both Christ and our children, we should recognize the purpose of the video and either support those colleges which balance such, or (for students going into/ enlisted in colleges) help shape the culture to be the best it can be. I haven’t experienced many of the colleges commented about personally, so I can’t say how good a school is academically or spiritually without objective information. I just hope and pray for a better future than what we were given.
