What Is Still Catholic About Georgetown University?

I know that Joe mentioned this piece in his Friday ” First Links ” post, but it bears noticing again: Scott Walter’s column ” Hoyas Whip the Irish ,” at The Catholic Thing.  Scott catalogues what he can, in fewer than 1,000 words, of the appallingly un-Catholic goings-on that characterize Georgetown University today.  This is a sad state of affairs at the oldest Catholic university in the United States, and a caution to Catholic parents considering Georgetown as a destination for their kids.
