st johns catholic school

I personally am In New York so the St Johns University would be closer, and is probably cheaper. Although I am very interested in Seton Hall University which seems in my opinion to be in the same type of status accept its a little larger. (seton hall looks a little like st john's buildings). I once worked at St.Johns for summer youth progream and was able to get a feeling of the enviornment there, so I was wondering on what your take is?

I teach at St. John's in the Management Department (though I am very familiar with Seton Hall as my wife is a Vice-president there). Both are good schools. However, you have to consider particular schools and majors and evaluate them competitively. St. John's pays its faculty third in the city after Columbia and NYU. Certainly more than CUNY. If you are contemplating a business major, you might examine my home page and get an idea of at least what one member of the faculty's credentials are. You notion that St. John's being much cheaper than Seton Hall might be mistaken. However, almost everyone who applies for financial aid at St. John's gets some so it might well work out to be true that way. St. John's is larger in enrollment and in campus size than Seton Hall. Certainly we have scads of new buildings too. Both schools have Big East sports, which can be a lot of fun. St. John's has an great many students from international backgrounds. It makes studying there an opportunity to become friends with people of many cultures, which is personally enriching.
Wishing you well,

is the st johns college in queens new york a catholic school?

Of course it is, it's named after a saint! lol
Anyway, I went there a week or two ago, and they said that it's not very Catholic.. there is a theology requirement and you may get taught by priests. I don't remember the exact number, but I think it was that only about half of the student population there was Catholic.

New york times on Thursday published fresh allegation that catholic church was more interested in protecting Lawrence Murphy, who worked at the former st john's school for the deaf in st Francis, Wisconsin, according to new york times, abused sexually 200 school boys.
The request to probe into this sex scandal was denied by vatican.

I don't agree with how it was handled (I am not catholic anyway), but I understand the era and the times when this happened.

I also understand the news was brought forth rather late in the person's life who was accused.

The person is dead and has been for a long time. I think if you really examine the FACTS you would see that one of the people claiming to be abused did bring their information to the local authorities who did NOTHING.

Why blame the church when even the local secular government did nothing? Want to fish for a blame game I guess.

The real issue is why people did not press on the issue at the time and let it go. Very disappointing.
