Cardinal Newman Society: Leading Bioethicist Joseph Meaney Formed by Faithful Catholic College
Joseph Meaney, President
The Cardinal Newman Society profiled NCBC president Joseph Meaney, an alumnus of the University of Dallas, in an August 5, 2020, article by Kelly Salomon:
One of the nation’s leading Catholic bioethicists, Dr. Joseph Meaney, navigates tough ethical questions as president of the National Catholic Bioethics Center—and he relies every day on the strong formation he received at a faithful Catholic college. . . .
When discussing important questions about “end of life issues,” an “experimental procedure” or some other bioethical topic, Meaney “provides what the Church teaches, but also compassionate listening and prayer.”
“This feels like many of my experiences at the University of Dallas,” Meaney relates. At the university located in Irving, Texas, “There was real human interaction — caring for others around you, while also sharing the wisdom of the Church.”
