It sounds as though the Catholic Faith will be taught unapologetically, so that's all I need to know.

I don't think so. That's not what I hear about Ave Maria in its current incarnation up in Michigan.

Please provide examples. All I've read is that Ave Maria College in Michigan and Ave Maria University in Florida are about as orthodox Catholic as one will find. If you've heard otherwise, please expound. If you can't, please refrain from making such comments. Thanks.

I know it is not going to be 'traditionalist', but frankly that's not what I'm interested in. The Latin Mass holds no fascination for me. I like Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, but not all of the devotionals so popular when I was young are particularly important. I want our kids to be taught a timeless Faith, not just a bunch of outward things that can change like fashion.

From what I've read, and I've been a supporter of the University for the last two years, it sounds as though the college will offer Mass with several different worship styles so that not just one style predominates and those who prefer different styles can be accomodated. I like the 'organ music' style with hymns like those sung from the Oxford Hymnal, but I also like the more modern 'Praise and Worship style like that used in Life Teen Masses. As long as we're praising Jesus and preparing to receive His Body and Blood, that's what's important to me.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the Rosary are important, but not all of the devotionals so popular when I was young are particularly crucial.
