First Year of the Initiative: "An Extraordinary Beginning" Blog Post

by John Carr

Right Mission, Right Time, Right Place

What an encouraging, promising, amazing first year this has been for the Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life of Georgetown University. One year ago, the Initiative began carrying out its unique mission:

  • to promote deeper knowledge and broader dialogue on Catholic Social Thought,
  • to prepare students and other young people for affirmative and principled engagement in public life, and
  • to promote civil dialogue and collaboration across religious, ideological, and political lines in pursuit of the common good.
