As the DePaul encampment enters its third week, student protest leaders said their message and mission will last longer than their tent encampment in support for Palestine as the Israel-Hamas war continues.
DePaul long ago lost its identity as a Catholic university. It has hosted pro abortion speakers, gay marriage speakers, banned conservative speakers and derives a lot of tuition and money from Muslim students. I went to a Catholic university, not DePaul, and 4 courses in theology and 4 courses in philosophy were required for my degree. Catholic philosophy was not indoctrinated, but its teachings and attitudes were present. DePaul is less interested in being a Catholic university than being a secular one.
