"As a Center Fellow, I have been given the wonderful opportunity to collaborate with University faculty as well as colleagues in the larger social justice community of New York and beyond.The Fellows program has built a community of once dispersed and often isolated scholars and activists from across the University whose dedication to social justice, faith and action continues to grow both locally and globally."

A Catholic university is called to become an evermore effective instrument of cultural progress for individuals as well as for society. Included among its research activities, therefore, will be a study of serious contemporary problems in areas such as the dignity of human life, the promotion of justice for all, the quality of personal and family life, the protection of nature, the search for peace and political stability, a more just sharing in the world’s resources and a new economic and political order that will better serve the human community at a national and international level.
