PhD Candidate Ellen Concannon to Participate in Colloquy on Faith and Intellectual Life
Ph D candidate Ellen Concannon has been selected to participate in the 2009 Collegium Summer Colloquy on Faith and Intellectual Life.
The Collegium summer colloquy developed in response to the long-standing concern among educators and church leaders for the future prospects of the religious identity of the many Catholic colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. Catholic institutions have found it increasingly difficult to uphold their faith-based mission statements and identify, recruit, and develop new faculty who can both articulate and expand the vision of the Catholic intellectual tradition. Collegium, a national organization of Catholic colleges and universities, was founded in 1992 to respond to these challenges
The 2009 Colloquy will be held June 5-12 at Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota. Visit their web site at: www.csbsju.edu
