Providence College or Drexel University

What does “very Catholic” mean? It is a Catholic school so there are going to be things like several Masses in the chapel instead of one, on Sundays, and special celebrations of certain feast days and such. I would expect the same at Brandeis or BYU or any religously affiliated school.

I really don’t think the students sit around discussing the lives of the saints, on Saturday nights.

Why don’t you give them a call & ask to speak with one of the students? Or do that visit & stay overnight thing, if they have one going?

The campus is in an urban setting, as is Drexel’s. The neighborhood around PC is not a dangerous slum but it is not the nicest part of town either. I lived in Providence 6 yr, though not in this part, and there is plenty of interesting stuff around. And buses.
