...weaned on the strict dogma of Pope John Paul II, is more conservative than its predecessors who came of age in the 1960s and '70s in the wake of Vatican II. Many, like the new parochial vicar at St. Mark, the Rev. Timothy Reid, 34, an Indiana native, are drawn to the more orthodox spirit they see in Southern pews.

With salaries for teachers starting at less than half those of first year I-bankers, it’s no surprise that students aren’t drawn to teaching. Clearly, much of the negative attention given to the profession is a result of the low pay, and unfortunately there isn’t much Harvard can do about that. The school can, however, work to institute as much support for budding teachers as there is for budding...
