Philadelphia does not deserve to live

I am one of the few, the proud transplants from the western United States to Georgetown. Upon my arrival two years ago, I was confronted with a host of perplexing new experiences: subways, stupid accents and, most amazingly, condensed travel time. The rapidity of, nay, the existence of interstate train travel allows one to traverse the Eastern Sea Board in the time it takes to drive to many of the respective state lines west of the Mississippi.

The Cross on the Wall

When it comes to the Catholic identity of Georgetown University, it seems that the degree of Catholicism is in the eye of the beholder. To some, Georgetown does not deserve to label itself a Catholic institution?the presence of groups such as H*yas for Choice, an abortion rights student organization, and GU Pride, a group for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender students, as well as the presence of speakers with “anti-Catholic” messages on campus disqualify Georgetown from calling itself a Catholic school.
