The Lumen Christi Institute supports this endeavor by sponsoring a number of graduate student reading groups each quarter. LCI provides space\, hospitality\, and books. \nReading groups cover the whole spectrum of ideas. Texts do not need to be explicitly Catholic\, though we follow St. Paul’s injunction to attend to whatever is true\, noble\, right\, admirable\, and lovely (Phil 4:8). Groups follow LCI’s guiding principles\, which… \n\n\nAffirm the intellectual life as good in itself \n\n\nAsk questions animated by the principle that “all knowledge forms one whole” \n\n\nTranscend the ideological / political divide (i.e.\, programs should not be partisan in nature) \n\n\nWelcome religious perspectives as part of the intellectual life (i.e.\, programs need not be theological in nature but conversations should be open to religious insights) \n\n\nNurture friendships\, to support the pursuit of truth\, beauty\, and goodness (i.e.\, programs should have a social component) \n\n\nThis quarter the reading groups will cover: The American Gothic\, James Joyce’s Dubliners\, Greek New Testament\, and Latin Vulgate.
