Again, the exact words of my protestant friend.
Sorry, it is not necessary to experience evil to recognize it. A woman doesn't have to get an abortion, you don't have to get a subscription to Hustler, you can skip injecting heroin that one time. We all are confronted by evil every day without going out and looking for it.
Now, if it were their intention to discuss from a critical perspective -- to point out the flaws and the immorality (at an appropriate age group -- college), that would be one thing. But this is a Jesuit school. The intention is the opposite.
Sorry, it is not necessary to experience evil to recognize it.

One does not “experience” evil in the reading of a book.
One experiences evil in the company of humans.
