I’m somewhat familiar with GCC. How did you find the school with regard to it’s treatment of Catholicism?

All in all, the school's treatment of Catholicism is good. Most of the professors are fair in their treatment of Catholicism in discussions in and out of class. There is a healthy Newman Club that has very good rapport with both the parish in town and the administration. Campus ministry has also been consistently supportive. On occasion, there are non-Catholic students who will approach Catholicism negatively, but even they dwindled in number between when I started and when I graduated this past spring.

Individual Catholic students get out what they put into the situation. There are opportunities to live and grow in faith; some students use them and thrive, and others don't.
