TORONTO, February 14, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Nearly a dozen professors from or associated with the University of St. Michael’s College (USMC – an affiliate of the University of Toronto) have signed an open letter responding to the principal of the Catholic College who denounced a lecture by world renowned Catholic philosopher Dr. Peter Kreeft. The Kreeft lecture, organized by the pro-life students group at USMC, was attacked vehemently by homosexual activists who had protest post cards printed even prior to the talk.
USMC Principal, Professor Mark McGowan, wrote, “The Kreeft lecture greatly detracted from the inclusive and respectful environment we are trying to nurture at St. Michael’s.” In response, a group of professors and alumni said they were “deeply concerned by the chilling implication” of the statement by Principal McGowan and the Principal’s Advisory Committee on Sexual Orientation.
