Here’s What the M.I.T. Catholic Chaplain Got Fired Over

[Editor's Note: Below is the text of an email message that Father Daniel Moloney, the Catholic chaplain at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, sent to Catholics at the university (a group known as the Tech Catholic Community, or TCC) on Sunday, June 7, 2020. Two days later, the Archdiocese of Boston forced him to resign because of it.Like most colleges, M.I.T. has not been in session on campus since March because of the coronavirus emergency, which is why Father Moloney mentions early in the email message that he is unable to preach.
