Former President Summers once said that “operating our campus in an environmentally sustainable way is not only the right thing to do as a citizen and neighbor, it is also an economically sound way to conduct our business.” The longer we wait to make the necessary sustainability adjustments advocated by the upcoming referendum, the more costly our effort will become and the less of an impact it will have.

Convents conduct e-mail correspondence with interested women, blogs written by sisters give a peek into the habited life and websites offer online personality questionnaires to test vocations.

"For a long time, we neglected to invite people to see what we are about," says Sister Doris Gottemoeller of the Institute...
