Catholic Q&A is one of our most successful events. It is a students-only affair and the setting is intimate and relaxed. The fall 2016 semester's Catholic Q&A was led by Dr. Amanda Bryan (Political Science). Catholics in America will have a unique role in the 2016 election. More than ever before, Catholic voters are divided; politics and the theology of the "Francis Effect" are cross-cutting on a number of issues important to voters.

Dr. Bryan's remarks facilitated discussion about the interesting way the "Catholic voter" will impact the 2016 election. Remarks will also be offered about what effects the loss of Antonin Scalia, one of the Supreme Court's most influential Catholic leaders, will have on the election and upcoming Supreme Court cases.
