"As a Vincentian Fellow my greatest challenge is getting science into the hands of our youngest students in an easy to understand and decidedly interesting way."
Catholic universities will be particularly attentive to the poorest and to those who suffer economic, social, cultural or religious injustice. This responsibility begins within the academic community but it also finds application beyond it.
