St Gregory's in Oklahoma

[katherineH]

I haven't seen this posted yet, so I thought you might be interested to know that St Gregory's University in Oklahoma, started and run by the Benedictine monks of St Gregory's Abbey, is closing in a few weeks.  They were unable to stay open after they were denied federal grant for rural universities.  No one really knows what this means for the monks at the Abbey, who are already struggling with vocations. It's such a sad situation: they are the only 
Catholic university in Oklahoma, and are such a important presence for Catholics in Oklahoma.
