S.T.L. student Fr. Tommaso Badiani will defend his thesis “The Foundations of Pedagogy According to Romano Guardini” and lectio coram on Wednesday, May 3, at 2:00 p.m. in McGivney Hall, Room 214. His evaluation board includes Dr. Jonathan Bieler (director), Dr. Michael Hanby, and Dr. Nicholas Healy, from the Institute faculty.

The lectio coram is a magisterial lecture on a specific theological issue taken up during the course of studies for the licentiate before a panel of three examiners, comprised of the thesis director and the two readers of the thesis. The lectio coram should demonstrate the candidate’s competence in theology and as a teacher.

This event is open to the public.
