Georgetown is still a Jesuit University but it hasn't beeb a "Catholic" University for over a quarter of a century. I went to Catholic University across town and waaaaay back then we were surprised and angered by the pro-abortion activities of the faculty staff and student government.
I wish Ave Maria School of Law would go ahead and move to FL with the University, and would do it by next fall!! LOL!
Cleveland ping. I'm surprised to see John Carroll on the list, but maybe I'm just naive.
If anyone wants on or off my ProLife Ping List, please notify me here or by freepmail.
My face has turned red alright .... but I'm not blushing!
What some perceive as an all out attack on the catholic church is taking some interesting turns. Good!! Time to clean up the churches and universities.

Sexual Health & SafetyCloseness, touching, and intimacy are good for health. One way to experience these is through sexual contact. Some people decide to delay sex until they are in a long-term committed relationship. Others decide to become sexually active without one. If you choose to be sexually active, consider your health and peace of mind by playing it safe. Safer SexSafer sex means being intimate but using measures that minimize the risk of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Not having sex, including intercourse, oral sex, anal sex, and genital to genital contact is the only sure way to eliminate the risk for STDs. Caressing, hugging, dry kissing, and masturbation are no risk or extremely low-risk practices. So is limiting your sexual contact to one person your entire life if your partner is also monogamous and does not have an STD. Follow these measures to reduce the risk for contracting an STD:
If you have multiple sex partners, ask your health care provider to check for STDs every 6 months (or as he or she advises), even if you dont have any symptoms. Seek treatment for a sexually transmitted disease if you know your sex partner is infected. For Information, Contact:Your schools Student Health Center, your health care provider, or your local health department The National STD Hotline American Social Health Association (ASHA) Planned Parenthood Federation of America Sexual AssaultSexual assault is an unlawful act that may involve the touching of intimate body parts, sexual intimidation, or forced sexual penetration. This includes sexual intercourse, oral sex, and digital penetration. Rape is forced sexual intercourse. Force may be by verbal threats, physical restraint, or violence. Rape is one of the most underreported, violent crimes in the United States. Only about 16% of rapes are reported. Acquaintance or date rape is forced or coerced sexual intercourse by a friend or acquaintance, usually in a dating situation. About 80% of sexual assault victims knew their assailant. Most acquaintance rape is sexually motivated with violence or coercion as factors. Almost all sexual assaults on college campuses are acquaintance rapes, and in most cases at least one of the persons involved is under the influence of alcohol or another drug. Safety Tips to Reduce the Chances for Sexual AssaultBe aware of the risks of date rape with drinking alcohol. About 75% of male students who take part in acquaintance rape had been drinking; about 55% of female students had.
Be aware of these date-rape drugs, which have no odor or color when mixed with drinks:
Consider using a coaster or test strip made to detect date rape drugs in drinks before you take a sip. An example is Drink Safe CoasterTM by Drink Safe Technology. For information, contact http://www.drinksafetech.com/. If you suspect you have been drugged keep a sample of your drink. Get help immediately. Have a friend help you get medical care. Call EMS, if necessary. Get tested for the drug within 12 hours of the suspected incident at a hospital emergency department. Do not have sex with a person who is under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, which compromise consent. Also, look out for the safety of your friends and yourself and dont put yourself in vulnerable situations.

It's very very sad to think about. It's easier to joke if the stakes weren't so high, individually and societally.
