Entangled Responsibility - Clergy Sexual Abuse...And What It Has To Do With Loyola University Chicago

During the 2021 – 22 academic year, the Richard A. McCormick S.J. Chair in Moral Theology received a grant from Fordham University’s Taking Responsibility Project to document the sexual assault and abuse cases committed by Roman Catholic clergy associated with Loyola University Chicago and to create an online archive where the documentation would be hosted. In addition to the funding provided by Fordham, the McCormick Chair and the Hank Center for the Catholic Heritage provided funding that allowed the hiring of Dr. Sebastian Wuepper, a recent PhD graduate from our History Department, to undertake the process of documentation and the creation of the online archive. The Center for Textual Studies and Digital Humanities provided their crucial expertise in the design of the online archive. The online archive will be officially made public as a part of this event and the 2022 McCormick Lecture will be given by German theological ethicist Doris Reisenger.
