Off-campus residents, community react to New Center leadership change
Mary Ward, who has been a congregant of The Saint Thomas More Newman Center at Ohio State for 59 years, loved the connections she was able to make with the students who attended the church. However, with the recent leadership changes within the Newman Center for a “student-focused vision,” Ward and other church members claim they are being overlooked. Ward said the new Diocese’s vision will alienate and prevent non-students from participating within the church.
