How Does the Catholic Church Elect a Pope?
Tuesday, March 12th • 11:30 am • IC Room 317 (IC Quiet Reading Room)
Pope Benedict XVI has resigned and the Catholic Church will begin the process of electing a new Pope. Who votes, where do they meet, what do we know about the process that is conducted behind closed doors? Join Dr. Michael Murphy, Director of Catholic Studies, for a conversation about the process, the rituals, and the politics of electing a Pope.
Flash Seminars are free, informal lectures on current events or stuff that is just plain interesting. Sponsored by Information Technology Services, The Faculty Center for Ignatian Pedagogy, and The University Libraries.
