She has been writing these articles concurrently with carrying out her fulltime responsibilites as Director of Teacher Education at Silver Lake College. Many thanks to Sister Kay for sharing the fruits of her doctoral work. The Church's social teaching is surely a rich treasure of wisdom about building a just society. Peter Hennot, S.J., offers a definition of social justice that challenges one to action: "Social justice means loving people so much that I work to change structures that violate their dignity." I have memories from over 40 years ago of integrating "The Christian Social Principles," which were posted in my 8th grade homeroom, in the curriculum. Any one else with similar memories?
