    This is all so true even today for we need not worry re 20 years from now. it si sad but with teh paucity of vocations in colleges and universities once owned and then "sponsored" by religious communities, it is simply not the same. We can only pray that. teh early roots and values of education at those then religious sponsored institutions remains with the laity in charge. But, pray god, pray for us all.
