On

celebrant, joined at the altar by numerous
concelebrants. Then, at the celebratory dinner, the Rev.
Wojciech Giertych, O.P., theologian of the papal
household, served as keynote
speaker.

COLLEGE
JOINS EFFORT
TO APPEAL CONTRACEPTIVE MANDATE
Defends
Religious Liberty, Natural Law

Catholic colleges and universities — including Thomas
Aquinas College — have taken a stand against a federal
mandate that gravely threatens religious liberty and
sound medicine. As a signatory to an appeal filed by the
Alliance Defense Fund on behalf of the Cardinal Newman
Society, the College is seeking a religious and moral
exemption to a policy requiring employers to include
sterilization and contraceptives — even those that can
cause abortions — in their health-coverage
plans.
