A Latin Essay, Through and Through
From content to its sources of authority. But still worth a read.
Fatima to Vatican II: Mary, ‘Mother of the Church’ and Our Loving Mother by Matthew Tsakanikas, STD
Called to be the God-bearer, Mother to the Head of the Church, Mary was commissioned and called implicitly to be mother of every member born of the virginal womb of the Church in baptism.

Christendom College Seeks to Build a New Chapel
Their current recruitment video: Dare to be Great? Reminds me of Donald Trump and "Make America Great Again."
Christendom College launches a new capital campaign.
They want to build a Gothic-style chapel even though none of the other buildings are in that style. And I personally think that overall, Gothic is not that attractive, though some Gothic temples here and there are beautiful, especially if they are made primarily out of wood. The first chapel may be simple, but I think it fits the campus better and is more American in appearance ("colonial" style?). What will the locals think of the temple? A foreign intrusion into their area? (Did they even bother to consult the locals for the design?)
They plan to convert the current chapel into a cultural center.
What alternative Latin architectural style might be suitable for the campus? Did they choose Gothic because it is associated with the medieval period? Modified colonial, with some Renaissance influence, something to complement the library?
There are different national styles of Byzantine architecture, but do we see as much change in these styles over time? Is Byzantine architecture more likely to be stable and have the semblance of "timelessness"?

How different would some of those designs be if the architects did not have pews in mind when they created their designs?

I did not know he had taken over editing of HPR from Fr. Baker. Something he wrote for Christmas: Why God Becomes Human
