Man, it's getting hard to keep up with all the developments at DePaul.

From NPR last week:

DePaul University in Chicago -- the largest Catholic university in the United States -- is launching a "queer studies" program that looks at issues of homosexuality. DePaul will be the first Catholic university to offer a minor in the topic, and could face the wrath of the Vatican. Jason DeRose of Chicago Public Radio reports.

Will DePaul offer a minor in "conservative studies?" Or even "libertarian studies?"
