Abstract

Controversy often surrounds issues of sexual ethics on campus. This article offers a helpful framework for consideration of one of today’s difficult issues: ministry to gay and lesbian students at Catholic institutions. By demonstrating how one may be faithful to Magisterial teaching, the Gospel command to love, and solid principles of human development and psychology, the author offers concrete steps for establishing and protecting a climate of conversation.
