How can Catholic institutions of higher learning maintain their distinctive character despite having faculties, administrations, and student that have little connection to a Catholic tradition? This question is central to this volume in which Haughey (affiliated with Woodstock Theological Center, Georgetown University) examines both the nature of education and what Catholicism can bring to the educational table. By examining what faculty do (and how they do it), Haughey provides a process by which the pursuits of individual faculty members can be better aligned with Catholic institutions' formal missions. This book will be of great interest to anyone concerned with understanding the distinctively Catholic character of Catholic universities. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
