  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

University has removed some video proof of program

An award-winning “students of color” nursing program at Loyola University Chicago is now the subject of a federal civil rights complaint.

The Jesuit Catholic university won an “Inclusive Excellence, Belonging, and Sustainability” award from the American Association of Colleges of Nursing.

“One of the school’s signature efforts, the CARE Pathway to the BSN, provides support to students of color new to nursing school to facilitate baccalaureate degree-completion and overall student success,” the news release stated.

The “Collaboration, Access, Resources, and Equity) Pathway” is an “investment in the future of nursing,” according to the university. “By helping students underrepresented in nursing succeed in college, the Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing is helping create a more diverse nursing workforce and ultimately better patient outcomes.”

It is supported with a $2.2 million grant from the federal Health Resources and Services Administration.
