Director's Welcome

Welcome to the website for the program in Catholic Studies! In the Catholic Studies minor we explore the tradition of Catholicism and its interactions with culture throughout history. In this minor you will learn to see Catholicism as that which integrates various disciplinary approaches. Drawing on the rich intellectual and cultural heritage of the Catholic and Jesuit traditions, we seek God in all things. Come join our community of faculty and students as we explore together. 

Please email me with any questions about the program: nfisher1@luc.edu. Thank you for visiting! 

-Dr. Naomi Fisher
