Call for Abstracts
2024 Annual Symposium on Transforming Culture
“Restoring All Things in Christ: The Mission of Catholic Education Today”
From Clement of Alexandria, to the Benedictines, from Aquinas and Bonaventure, to Erasmus and the Jesuit Ratio Studiorum, from Newman and Bosco, to Maritain and Giussani, Catholic education has drawn from the “great tradition” in order to develop and adapt to meet the needs of the age. Today the challenge of secularism and the rise of the ’nones’ presents many challenges for Catholic education at every level. However, signs of renewal and innovation provide reasons for hope. This year’s Symposium seeks to address the mission of Catholic education today. We invite scholars and field professionals from all educational levels to submit presentation proposals related to Catholic philosophy of education, theological anthropology, pedagogy, integration of knowledge, interdisciplinary study, the role of liberal arts and professional education, and practical administration.
Abstracts: Proposals should be sent in the form of a 150 word abstract. Submissions should be turned in online by November 15, 2023. Notification of acceptance will be given by December 15, 2023.
Presentation Details: Presentations will be 20 minutes in length with 2-3 presenters per session.
