So many non-white students in this group, wonder why that is.
Of the 9,000 plus students, 53% are women, and Enrollment · African American: 7.2% · Asian: 9.8% · Hispanic / Latino: 22.8% · White / Non-Hispanic: 42.4% · Multi-race: 7.8%.
The demographics for California are: 39% of state residents are Latino, 35% are white, 15% are Asian American or Pacific Islander, 5% are Black, 4% are multiracial, and fewer than 1% are Native American or Alaska Natives, according to the 2020 Census.
Ok, but with so few minority students. they are over represented in this group. Perhaps they actually enjoy the notoriety of being in the minority, twice over.
Why can’t they just admit they’re post-Catholic and post-Christian? Does truth in advertising not matter?

The abnormal LGBT disorder needs to be placed back on the medical books. That is where it belongs. The Catholic Church must help these people suffering from an abnormal medical disorder, lead chaste, productive lives, as God intended. Or else, the name and status of “Catholic” must be removed from LMU.

Imagine how the Jesuits of old and even a few today, who are still Catholic, feel. Once I was having lunch with my spiritual director and other “retired” Jesuits and, sadly, one at our table said if he’d had children he would not send them to Jesuit schools and the others at the table agreed. Saint Ignatius of Loyola, St. Francis Xavier, St. Isaac Jogues, St. Robert Bellarmine, St. Edmund Campion and all Jesuit Saints, pray for all Jesuits and the Church of our Lord.
