We toured a lot of Jesuit colleges including Seattle University, BC, University of San Francisco, and Santa Clara. The wierd thing is that nearly all of them said they had 30 - 40% Catholic students. That said, Santa Clara has student/staff masses twice a day which are well attended. USF students seldom attend mass (per the admissions presenter). This would be a good question to ask to ferret out how “religious” the campus is, and how much diversity is tolerated. It’s my understanding that Jesuit priests at Universities are no longer supported (or even directly affiliated) with the Catholic Church. I found this out when I called to see how much of my tuition would be tithed to an institution that I no longer support: The division (at least at Seattle University) was absolute. Why not post this question on the BC board?
