Brian Clites, Instructor of Religious Studies, wrote about the 2018 Pennsylvania grand jury report on sexual abuse in the Catholic church. Although the report did not produce many tangible reforms, Clites has learned through his research that the grand jury succeeded in shifting public perceptions of survivors of clergy abuse. You can read his article in The Conversation, or listen to his 15-minute radio interview on The Attitude with Arnie Arneson. (Dr. Clites’ segment begins about 11 minutes into the 1-hour show.)
