The University Of Scranton And Student Health Services

Bishop Joseph F. Martino and Auxiliary Bishop John M. Dougherty have in a letter to Jesuit Father Scott R. Pilarz, president of the University of Scranton to provide information on their student health services, in order to have assurance that no practice is occurring which would be in violation of Catholic teaching. The bishops explain that their inquiry was prompted by a March 25 article in the student newspaper at St. Joseph University in Philadelphia. The article describes how the university, in its words, finds the “middle ground between Church doctrine and student healthcare.”
