Title	Catholic Student Protest and Campus Change at Loyola University in New Orleans, 1964-1971
Author	Lorenz, Robert
Document Type	Master's Thesis
Keywords	History; United States; Louisiana; New Orleans; Catholics; Loyola University; Student protests; 1960s
Abstract	This study analyzes the development of the student protest movement at Loyola University New Orleans from1964 to 1971. It focuses on student protests against racial discrimination and the Vietnam War, student agitation for greater freedom on campus, and battles that Loyola‘s faculty had with the university administration. This study argues that Loyola‘s student protesters were acting as Catholics against situations they believed were immoral and unjust. In this sense, they were ahead of the Jesuit clergy at Loyola, who took action only after student protest on those issues. Indeed, student protest filled a void of moral leadership that the Jesuit administration at Loyola failed to provide. Moreover, in the areas of student participation in university governance, changes in curriculum and university restrictions, and student rights and freedoms, the student protesters joined with Catholic commentators who advocated for major changes at the country‘s Catholic universities.
