About this listen

In this episode of Being Catholic with Bob Johnston, Bob and his wife Lynn discuss the newly opened San Damiano College for the Trades in Springfield, Illinois. They explore how the college combines hands-on vocational training with liberal arts, theology, and the Church’s tradition to form independent, debt-free workers and revive a holistic model of education.

The conversation also touches on broader concerns about modern education, dependence on the state, and the need to evolve learning for the AI era by emphasizing moral, practical, and integrative thinking.
