Roman Catholic universities and colleges in the United States
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Roman Catholic Colleges and Universities in the United States
This is meant to serve as a way of organizing the Catholic colleges and universities in the United States by affiliation. Most of these colleges already have a page in Wikipedia; however, an overview of the colleges and universities regarding their relation to one another and to the Catholic church is lacking. This is an alternative index to Catholic colleges and universities in the United States. If you have an edit as to how the colleges are organized make those changes on this page. More detailed information about individual institutions should be made on a page dedicated to that institution. The goal is to form an exhaustive list so if you see a college missing (maybe yours) add it! Ultimately each college should have an internal link to that institution's wikipage and an external link to the institution-sponsored page.
