The Catholic Church Has Gone Through More Change In The Last Sixty Years Than In The Previous Six Hundred. These Changes Have Caused A Significant Shift In The Future Outlook Of Catholic Higher Education As The United States Has Developed A Culture That Has Grown Less Receptive To Religious Traditions And Practices. Drawing Upon His Extensive Experience, James Heft Lays Out The Current State Of Catholic Higher Education And What Needs To Be Done To Ensure That Catholicism Isnt Fazed Out Of The Educational System. Heft Analyzes The Foundational Intellectual Principles Of Catholic Higher Education, And Both The Strengths And Weaknesses Of The Present Day System In Order To Look At Possibilities For Its Future.Drawing Upon Both History And Current Cultural Trends, The Future Of Catholic Higher Education Critiques The Secularization Thesis, Explores The Role Of Bishops, Theologians, Dissent, The Sensus Fidelium, The Role Of Women And Freedom Of Conscience, The Relationship Between Theology And Religious Studies, Hiring Practices And Curricular Designs. Using The Image Of The 'Open Circle,' Heft Advances A Vision Of The Catholic University That Is Neither A 'Closed Circle' Of Only Catholics Nor A 'Market Place Of Ideas With No Distinctive Mission.' His 'Open Circle' Is One That Fosters The Catholic Intellectual Tradition By Including Scholars Of Many Religions, Rooting Catholic Social Thought In Catholic Doctrine, Defending Academic Freedom And The Mandatum.
