Brennan 228

Gerald J. Beyer, PhD, will discuss the mission of Catholic
universities in terms of social justice and accessibility to higher
education, questioning whether a Catholic university education is
an option for the poor and speculating what can be done to open
our classroom doors to broader economic diversity. Dr. Beyer is an
Associate Professor of Christian Social Ethics at Saint Joseph’s
University and the author of Recovering Solidarity: Lessons from
Poland’s Unfinished Revolutions. He holds a PhD from Boston
College, an MAR from Yale University Divinity School, and a BA
in Philosophy from Georgetown University.
