Dear Smedleybutler,

"I teach philosophy at Boston College — one of the top Catholic universities in America.

If Kreeft honestly thinks that BC is one of the top 'Catholic universities in America' then he's in as much trouble as his students."

From an academic perspective, BC is very highly rated. A quick Internet search puts it in the top 5 Catholic schools in the country, at least academically.

Academics aside, BC is a CINO outfit, just like Notre Dame. If they're going to claim to be Catholic then they better toe the Ex Corde Ecclesiae line, which they don't. Maybe Kreeft doesn't understand that. Apparently other people don't understand it either. A truly Catholic university wouldn't allow garbage like "The Vagina Monologues" to be performed on its campus. Both BC and ND, amongst many other CINO universities, did.
