THE 308 Catholic Social Teaching
Christian faith requires action. This course reflects on the Church’s social teaching from Scripture, the Patristic and Medieval Church, and especially from Pope Leo XIII’s Rerum Novarum to the Second Vatican Council. The course further reflects on the Church’s continued growth in its social awareness and activities since the Council. In addition, students may engage in social justice outreach complementing their academic learning. Classes may be taught in an in-class, hybrid, or online format. Some designated hybrid and online courses have set times that require virtual participation. (May be taught concurrently with THE 561)
