At Canisius, where religious studies and theology are taught within a Jesuit context, the students are more likely to be practicing Catholics.
Senior Hunter Dudkiewicz, for example, is a dual major in philosophy and religious studies and is exploring the possibility of becoming a Jesuit priest.
While Dudkiewicz has focused mostly on seminar courses exploring Catholicism, other students seem to gravitate to the broader survey courses that look at other faiths and practices.

Though curious, students typically have little knowledge of world religions when they start out at Fredonia, because high schools rarely address the topic, Tuggy said .

Also, according to one poster, "If anyone you meet ever says they are from Century City (NOT LA- but CC) than you'd be advised to be nice to them and not ever cross them. Only lodge-connected folks ever say Century City instead of LA." Now you know.
