Others emphasize the political dimension. "Mary stood up for the poor and oppressed," says Sister Mary O'Driscoll, a professor at the Dominican order's Angelicum university in Rome. She and others point out that in the Magnificat (Luke 1), the pregnant Mary declared that God "has put down the mighty from their thrones and exalted those of low degree; he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent empty away...
...editorial vigorously rejected a 1984 German book, Unity of the Churches --Real Possibility, co-authored by the late Jesuit theologian Karl Rahner and Father Heinrich Fries of the University of Munich. The attack was signed by French Dominican Daniel Ols, who teaches at the Pontifical Angelicum University in Rome. Such an editorial does not carry the weight of a Vatican pronouncement, but Ols says that he was asked to write his piece "by the hierarchy," which would mean by key aides of the Pope or even by John Paul himself...
Ordained a priest in 1946, just as the Soviet-backed Communist Party was beginning to smother all opposition, Wojtyla did two years of doctoral work in philosophy at Rome's Pontifical Angelicum University. During this period he spent considerable time ministering to Polish refugees in Belgium, Holland and France. Returning to Poland as a parish priest and student chaplain, he spent two years of further study in ethics at Cracow's Jagiellonian, and later was appointed to a chair in moral theology. In 1954 he began teaching at the Catholic University of Lublin?the only Catholic center of higher education...

The rest of the day they work, study and pray at 39 residential colleges maintained by national hierarchies and religious congregations...
...train its own priests. In 1552 St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuits, set up the Gregorian. Eventually, Catholic prelates from other countries created col leges in Rome so that their brightest seminarians could study under the Greg's good Jesuit teachers or with the Dominicans at the Angelicum (founded in 1580). Once back home, graduates soon found that a degree from Rome was the sort of clerical credential that led to quick promotion. Study at the English College, founded in 1578, is all but essential for elevation to the English hierarchy, and one-third...
