Wilken, as a permanent member of its theology department -the first Protestant clergyman to hold such a full-time post at a Catholic university. The school also employs Rabbi Irwin M.

"If it's in the open," says Irwin, "we'll find it eventually." They're likely to find it even if it isn't in the open.
