<p>And now, ladies and gentlemen, I believe we have finally found the world’s most disagreeable way to say, “Other people might have different priorities.”</p>

<p>NYU - You are pompous.</p>
<p>Gee - poor OP is wondering what happened to this thread to get it so off-track 
This statement did make me laugh
I think there are plenty of condoms on the BC campus They may have come from the local drugstore or grocery store instead of the campus health center though.</p>
<p>NYU2013. Your word choice reminds me of the work of Wormser:
Bozo: " When I was there I listened to her talk about the male hegemony. You can see that Im educated because I used that word, hegemony. "
- from ‘John Berryman b. 1914"’</p>
<p>I agree with KKMama…I attended College of the Holy Cross in Worcester,MA. I don’t practice any religion though I was baptized Lutheran. Health Services offers you options for obtaining birth control/contraceptives, has held forums at which Planned Parenthood and pro-gay marriage and pro-choice representatives spoke.</p>
<p>@NYU2013…have you ever even been to Fordham? I did a program at Fordham and have many friends at Fordham. They may have a rule that members of the opposite sex cannot stay past a certain hour, but do they check? Nah. Are there ways around it? Yes. Speaking from experience! :p</p>
<p>@leanid - identifying someone’s comment as coming off or being reflective of a certain privilege and thereby not understanding that different people are from different backgrounds, identities, etc. does not make me a “pompous prick”, sorry. I merely identified the comment for what it was. </p>
<p>Thank you for utterly useless attempt at being insulting. Try harder next time; also, try to insult someone who isn’t merely stating the truth as a matter-of-fact, it just doesn’t work.</p>
<p>If you disagree with something I’ve said, then do please point out to me where I’m wrong. If you’re just being insulting because you don’t like that I’ve called something out for what it is, then by all means, please do leave this thread and go elsewhere.</p>
<p>@BeanTownGirl - well, yes, that’s obviously true 
I guess it would have been better to say something like ‘available to students on campus’ or some such.</p>
<p>@JessicaForbes - no, I have never spent the night at Fordham. Sure, there may be ways around it, but that wasn’t the point I was making at all.</p>
<p>OP, so sorry your thread deteriorated into a silly snipefest–I really don’t understand why posters engage in this sort of thing. In any case, in hopes of actually being helpful to you, I’d say that if your son’s Jewish identity is at all meaningful to him, I can’t imagine why he would even consider attending a Catholic college, given that there are so many other options in the geographic range you describe. And if meeting a “nice Jewish girl” is in any way a goal, that’s certainly going to be a challenge at a Catholic school. Boston College and Fordham do attract many non-Catholics because of their selectivity and location. I don’t think this is the case with Fairfield or Scranton, but it would be worthwhile to check their statistics.</p>
<p>Agreed a shame this thread went south, it really didn’t have to. </p>
<p>I would agree with Mommaj if these things are important to you it might not be the right place for your child. </p>
<p>I do wish you the best of luck whatever you decide op</p>
<p>Yeah, no kidding about this thread going south. I have actually learned a lot from the posts here (well, most of them:)).</p>
<p>This particularly interested me:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I think students considering any university need to educate themselves on the values and policies that are important to them, whether they affect them personally or have an impact on the larger world. Some institutions are not particularly good citizens of the communities in which they are located and/or engage in unethical practices around the globe. Some may have great student health services, but are stingy with financial aid and thus attract a largely privileged student body. Some are known for training future titans of Wall Street and industry, where ethical behavior may not be a core tenet. What seems “right” to a student depends on individual beliefs and values–religious and other.</p>
<p>Back to the original question–who is your child going to date? Is dating a person of a different faith “not done” at this college? I don’t know the answer for this college.</p>
<p>^ It’s been done. Nobody really cares about interfaith dating at either.</p>
