The Catholic University of America has launched a Web site dedicated to Benedict XVI's visit to the university in April.The address? http://papalvisit.cua.edu/
The Pope will be visiting the university April 17, as part of his apostolic visit to the United States.
"Even though we're five months away from welcoming the Holy Father to Catholic University, excitement about his upcoming visit is running very high," said university president Father David O'Connell.
"In recognition of this excitement and to satisfy the desire for as much information and transparency as possible, we have created this special Catholic University of America Web site," said the Vincentian priest. "This is our 'first draft.' We will have much more to add as time goes on."
The university's Web site provides information about Benedict XVI's scheduled meeting at the university with the presidents of Catholic colleges and universities and diocesan educational leaders, as well as general information to keep the university community and the general public informed about the historic visit.From the FAQ:

Though details remain to be worked out, we hope that current CUA students, faculty and staff will have the opportunity to see the Holy Father as he arrives on and departs from campus.
the best coverage of the Holy Father’s visit will be on EWTN.
I see he’ll be celebrating Mass at the stadium in D.C. I’d like to attend, if I can.
