Highlights
CHICAGO, IL (Catholic Online) - Father Andrew Greeley's final book, Chicago Catholics and the Struggles within Their Church, completed just weeks before his near-fatal accident in November 2008, will be unveiled by a group of eminent academicians from the University of Chicago and the University of California, Berkeley on Wednesday, Oct. 20 at 10 a.m. at the Gleacher Center, 450 N. Cityfront Plaza Drive, room 240.
Chicago Catholics and the Struggles within Their Church (Transaction Publishers), the first major academic survey of Chicago-area Catholics, is based on data from 524 Catholic respondents in Cook and Lake counties, contacted by the Survey Lab at the University of Chicago. His findings indicate a widening split between the laity's continuing enthusiasm for the faith and the Church's teachings on moral matters.
Speakers are: Tom W. Smith, Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for the Study of Politics and Society at the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago; Michael Hout, Natalie Cohen Professor of Sociology and Demography at the University of California, Berkeley; Colm O'Muircheartaigh, Dean and Professor at the Harris School of Public Policy Studies at the University of Chicago; and Sean Durkin, director and principal at Navigant Economics, and an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Booth School of Business, as well as a Lecturer in the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago. He is Father Greeley's nephew.
