Third Place, Catholic Media Association: Catholic Social Teaching
Gerald J. Beyer's Just Universities discusses ways that U.S.
Catholic institutions of higher education have embodied or failed
to embody Catholic social teaching in their campus policies and
practices. Beyer argues that the corporatization of the university
has infected U.S. higher education with hyper-individualistic
models and practices that hinder the ability of Catholic
institutions to create an environment imbued with bedrock values
and principles of Catholic Social Teaching such as respect for
human rights, solidarity, and justice. Beyer problematizes
corporatized higher education and shows how it has adversely
affected efforts at Catholic schools to promote worker justice on
campus; equitable admissions; financial aid; retention policies;
diversity and inclusion policies that treat people of color, women,
and LGBTQ persons as full community members; just investment; and
stewardship of resources and the environment.
