Just recently, on October 27th, Fr. Michael traveled to Holy Family Cathedral in Anchorage, Alaska to deliver a talk about the state of Catholic Education in America and why DSPT is so exceptional. His presentation was entitled "Reading the Signs of the Times: Dominican Education and the Challenge of Contemporary Culture." The presentation will be announced at www.dspt.com with a link to the full text if yor are interested in viewing it. It will be available within the coming week.
Father Michael Sweeney, OP, will be presenting a paper at the Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture's 10th annual fall conference The Summons of Freedom: Virtue, Sacrifice, and the Common Good taking place November 12-14. Father Michael's presentation, "Expressing the Good," will address the problem of the insufficient grasp of the good in our culture resulting in the inability to understand or apply the notion of the common good, and will suggest principles of a pedagogy that could address this problem.
