National Study on Catholic Campus Ministry
In 2016, the Secretariat of Catholic Education commissioned a National Study of Catholic Campus Ministry. This study defined a campus minister as someone whose primary responsibility is the pastoral care of the campus community. The study utilized an innovative, collaborative planning process. The Assistant Director for Higher Education in the Secretariat of Catholic Education, Barbara Humphrey McCrabb, proposed a two-pronged study and selected Brian Starks, Associate Professor of Kennesaw State University, to be the Principal Investigator. Through two national surveys, the research team considered 1) the formation and development of those who minister on campus and 2) the impact of Catholic campus ministry on those who participate. This report addresses the findings of the Campus Minister Instrument; the student data is not included in this report.
