Duquesne University: What Real Catholics Look Like?

This story, of Margaret Mary Vojtko, an adjunct professor at Duguesne, has received a bunch of attention on the interwebs--as it should!--because it is a terrible object lesson regarding life in the twilight of American decay.  The state of the academy, along with a wonderfully American wealth disparity between a dead adjunct and unfortunately all-to-alive-and-greedy Catholic university president, say, is telling in so many ways.  Margaret Mary--Margaret Mary!!--was tortured to death by a Catholic university, and if Jesus was really real, he would be extremely pissed that some self-described Catholics treated a most Catholic-named woman so poorly that she was forced to die penniless and in pain because of those same good Jesus and Pope people. 

I wonder what the new Pope, Francisco, would think of this bullshit treatment of Margaret Mary?
