Word on Fire announces new Master’s degree program

In a message to the University on July 7, Aaron Dominguez, executive vice president and provost for The Catholic University of America, announced new dean appointments, vice provost changes, and new directors for the University’s Cornerstone and Honors programs.

A June 11 campus conversation sparked by a new Catholic University of America Press book, Can AI Ever be Human? Consciousness Explored, turned into something far bigger: a wide-ranging dialogue about artificial intelligence, human dignity, and the soul of a new papal encyclical.

Civil dialogue experts from across the country gathered at The Catholic University of America to discuss how faith-based colleges and universities can foster conversation rather than polarization. This public session, held on June 8 in Heritage Hall, was part of the third annual convening of the American Council on Education’s Commission on Faith-Based Colleges and Universities.
