Abstract

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE ENVIRONMENT Theology Professor John O’Keefe, Ph.D., sees a new partnership between the Catholic Church and the planet. “The words ‘Catholic’ and ‘environmentalist’ are not mutually exclusive,” he writes. Page 10. WHOSE HEALTH CARE? Is the public health care crisis caused by an overweight, sedentary America a case of individual responsibility or is it a systemic problem? Creighton health care experts weigh in on the issue. Page 14. JESUIT REFUGEE SERVICE: SERVING THE PEOPLE OF CHAD Renowned Creighton photographer the Rev. Don Doll, S.J., captures the work of the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) as it provides education and advocacy in eastern Chad — where 250,000 refugees who had fled the Sudan now live. Page 18. EARNING, SAVING AND GIVING: HAVE WE LOST OUR WAY? Has the United States become a nation of borrowers and spenders adrift in an ocean of debt? Ken Washer, DBA, CFA, associate professor of finance at Creighton, addresses the question. Page 22.
