This article contained a quote that resonated with me about why views in support of discrimination and prejudice hold a different weight than a mere impolite expression of free speech.

As Holy Cross priests and brothers, we walk side by side with all on this beautiful UP campus. We live in residence halls, serve in campus ministry, share our classrooms as instructors and professors, and work within administration.

From the time Michael DeVaughn could walk, to his sophomore year of college, his family lived in an efficiency apartment in Washington D.C. with zero bedrooms.

This is a response to the opinion piece titled "We have come far, yet not far enough." What I would like to respond to is the inaccurate portrayal of what true Catholic teaching is on LGBTQ+ issues. In particular, I would like to focus on this statement made in the article: “This is not to say, however, that we believe Catholicism and the LGBTQ+ community are inherently incompatible. We believe that there is a way for these two communities to coexist and intersect, but not in our current campus atmosphere.”

Oregon isn’t usually the state that pops in your mind when you think of earthquakes. Your brain usually takes you somewhere like California, or maybe Alaska and Hawaii.
