Catholic Group Opposes College's Plan to Honor Senator Clinton

Topics: Political News and commentaries

(CNSNews.com) - A Roman Catholic organization is urging a Catholic school to rescind its offer to give Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) an honorary doctoral degree. Doing so would "honor the church's opponents in the fight against abortion," the group said.

Patrick Reilly, president of the Cardinal Newman Society, said it would be a "scandal" for Marymount Manhattan College in New York City to give Sen. Clinton a special degree on Friday, May 20, when she is also scheduled to deliver the school's commencement address.
