As we celebrate the Feast Day of St. Drexel tomorrow we here in New Orleans know her important contributions to the community and higher education in the establishment of Xavier University. I found this lengthy, albeit excellent, article from the Xavier website from about six years ago. I think it a great read if you have a devotion to St. Katharine Drexel, Xavier University or the Catholic contribution to the education of our minority brothers & sisters. Hers is a beautiful legacy, one worthy of Sainthood. Enjoy the story below:
