The Trouble with Jesuits, Part 53
Georgetown University, the oldest Catholic (well, Jesuit) institution in the US, has
become the first American college to engage a Hindu priest as a campus
chaplain.
Brahmachari Vrajvihari Sharan has been appointed to provide spiritual leadership for the Hindus studying at the Jesuit university in Washington, DC. Father Greg Schenden, a Catholic chaplain, explained to the Washington Post that the school's goal is to encourage spiritual growth for all students, regardless of their religious faith.
