“The annual meeting of the Fellowship of Catholic Scholars is one of the most stimulating and satisfying academic conferences I attend. The presentations are diverse and engaging, the conversations enriching, and the authentic Catholic fellowship personally and professionally uplifting.” 

“Finding the Fellowship of Catholic Scholars, becoming a member, and now getting more involved has been to me like crossing an intellectual desert and finding a living oasis. It has generated a turn in my professional and intellectual life. The richness of the conference themes and presentations is very beneficial to professionals and, by extension, to the larger Catholic community.”

“The Fellowship of Catholic Scholars’ dynamic gatherings charge up the mind and recharge the soul while advancing serious and purposeful academic discourse.”

“The talks at the convention were excellent, and I very much enjoyed the time for one-on-one conversations throughout the weekend. I met several fascinating people in a variety of professions, all living their faith in important ways. Paul Clement was absolutely outstanding. He spoke with clarity and solid reasoning, yet with great humility.”

"I attended my first Fellowship of Catholic Scholars conference two years ago, and it is now an event I eagerly anticipate and hope to attend for years to come. First-rate academics and prominent professionals tackle challenging issues in presentations that bridge theory and real-world experience. Actively engaged attendees bring questions and share experiences from across the country and every walk of life. The thoughtful presentations, spirited Q&A sessions, and the opportunity to interact with the speakers and fellow attendees—during the generous breaks and the wonderfully catered meals— foster among the participants a spirit truly deserving of the name 'Fellowship.'"

"The Fellowship of Catholic Scholars is a gift to all those seeking to further the Catholic intellectual life. The Fellowship provides a great source of camaraderie, as its name suggests, and offers a unique opportunity to forge professional relationships and partnerships across disciplinary and institutional boundaries. For me, as both a member and former Board member, the Fellowship has yielded opportunities and friendships that I otherwise would not have. "

“I strongly encourage Catholics in all professions to join the Fellowship of Catholic Scholars. After my career as a military contractor, the Fellowship became the place where I reconnected with the “life of the Catholic mind,” a life that is often unknown or undervalued. The Fellowship’s quarterly publication offers a terrific variety of perspectives that inspire but also challenge. The annual conventions are always a high point as an opportunity to rediscover why and how I do my work rather than what I do at work.”
