Maybe we should think more about what is good and great: "The good old days when America was “great” aren’t the 1950s. They’re whatever decade you were 11." wapo.st/3UUT0pB

Two troubling things about $$ as the only goal of higher edu: -What kind of people will these graduates become? -How much harm will the do to others & our society in only valuing $$? nytimes.com/2024/05/22/bus…

Results out for my study on Catholic higher edu: -compared 1k grads of Catholic colleges & universities to 1k grads of secular ones -Catholic grads ahead on: meaningful life, community and civic engagement, and morality in decision making stmarytx.edu/academics/cent…

News like this is terrifying. But, need more than short term responses to the fear. Need a bigger vision: focus on meaningful lives, community engagement, and ethical decision making. #HolisticImpactReport #Catholichigheredu insidehighered.com/news/business/…

Nice to see this interview of my study on Catholic higher education, noting how graduates have positive outcomes on meaningful lives, community engagement, and ethical decision making. Thanks Charlie Camosy! news.diocesetucson.org/news/looking-a…

One thing that strikes me in this is the need/desire for a meaningful life. It reminds me that a meaningful life is found more in loving your neighbor than in individually doing something great.

Nice to see this interview of my study on the value of Catholic higher education in Our Sunday Visitor by Charlie Camosy

Thanks Church Life Journal for publishing this essay on my new research. The essay draws out some of the practical implications of the positive outcomes - meaningful lives, community engagement, ethical decision making - of Catholic colleges and universities. churchlifejournal.nd.edu/articles/savin…

Here is a radio interview I just did. It is on my study of graduates of Catholic colleges and universities, how they come out ahead on meaningful lives, community engagements, and ethical decision making. open.spotify.com/episode/402NJD…

This is pretty interesting. It is a Catholic identity lived as well as preached.

Lots of good work coming out of the Center for Catholic Studies St. Mary's University Our first lecture is next Wednesday at 7:00 PM, featuring Jonathan Malesic on burnout. It's part of our fall series on Human Flourishing and the Catholic Intellectual Tradition.

We are starting our fall lecture series. It is on human flourishing (trying to do constructive work). Tonight St. Mary's University is Jonathan Malesic talking about burnout, work, and the good life.

Had the great privilege of presenting at the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce Education & Workforce Development Council Meeting. Drawing on my St. Mary's University research, I spoke about how Catholic higher edu fosters meaningful lives, community engagement, and ethical decision making.

Whose valuing the liberal arts? Rich schools and the military academies. Maybe the rest of us should too. Maybe the liberal arts are good for all of us. usnews.com/best-colleges/…

This is another thoughtful essay by Jonathan Malesic. It is not just "students these days" but what society tells them it is important. (Plus, it ends with a glimmer of hope.) nytimes.com/2024/10/25/opi…

On 11/12, the Center for Catholic Studies St. Mary's University is having Dr. Allison Gray speak on belonging and St. Paul for the Escobedo Saint John's Bible Lecture Series. She's drawing from her book "Reforming the Household of God: Paul's Models of Belonging" (Paulist Press ).
