From the Opinion Section: Debate Wars 2012

Pictured is the incumbent Democrat Barack Obama (left), and his opponent Repub-

lican Mitt Romney (right), former Governor of Massachusetts.

On Friday, Sept. 28, Chestnut Hill College hosted “A Conversation that Matters”

with Sister Simone Campbell. In a packed theater, Sister Simone spoke to a very atten-

tive audience. The event was co-hosted by the Institute of Forgiveness and Reconcili-

ation (IFR), the History Department and the Women’s Studies programs.

Sister Catherine Nerney, director of the IFR, said: “The work of NETWORK is

something that Sister Simone does 365 days a year, lobbying for issues of peace build-

ing; immigration, economic, social, and healthcare reform; and social justice issues

of all kinds.”

Sister Simone recently reached national attention after taking the “Nuns on a Bus”

tour, of which she took part giving her speech at the Democratic National Convention.
