=== (1) Friday Mass Change ===

No 12:05 PM Mass on Friday, 11/27 due to Thanksgiving Vacation.


=== (2) TCC Theology on Tap ===

We will be holding our very first TCC Theology on Tap on the 4th of
December at the Thirsty Ear Pub, doors open at 6.30 PM and we will begin at
7 PM. Discussion will be centered around the idea of 'morally guided
research' drawing heavily from Pope Francis' recent encyclical, Laudato Si.
Beside Fr. Dan we have confirmed our very own Josh Hester, Co-Chair of MIT
Sustainability, to discuss his thoughts on the encyclical. The reading for
this week can be found at http://www.brookings.edu
/research/papers/1996/08/childrenfamilies-akerlof.
It discusses the concept of Technology Shock (
wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_shock) applied to the social issues of
Out-Of-Wedlock births and is a good case study for the unacknowledged
'power' that scientist and engineers have in society. Please invite your
friends along, since this discussion will be of interest to all members of
the MIT community. For more details please contact Adam Kuang (
aqkuang at mit.edu). *You have to be over 21 to enter the Thirsty Ear.*
