To the Editor:
I, for one, applaud the University’s decision to charge Loyola students fleeing the wrath of God full tuition for accepting the University’s offer to house them.
It has been said that SLU is all about the business school, and what better way to teach the future mercantile leaders of America about good business than by example. The only way to thrive in a cutthroat world is to cut whatever throats offer themselves, after all.
Kudos to the University and Fr. Biondi for tossing away those silly, irrational ideals of altruism and charity, and by showing through action that when they say “all glory be to God,” the glory is the glorious luster of cold lucre and God.
Well, God has little use of coin in His Heaven, but surely His sales representatives down on this sphere won’t mind accepting a little (or a lot) of the green in His name.
