  3. The bracero program was a program that brought Mexicans to work as farm hands during the second world war. Moral Theology was how people who believe in Catholic church doctorine acted out that doctorine. It basically meant that people followed traditional beleifs despite changing times. The Chicano movement was an uprise by Mexican farmworkers who fought for fair working conditions and wages. Finally the association of Catholic Trade Unionistswas a way fro catholic workers to form unions. It was organized by John Cort who also used churches to labor schools which gave workers the skills to form unions. Hope this helps!

  10. Hey, for you last minute studiers, I'm guessing when Professor Cantwell type "Angle vs. Vitale" on the list, he mispelled "Engle" on purpose to let us know it was important. This is only a guess, but hey, it might be worth a shot. Also note that Dean Martin is in all caps.

  13. Hey All,

    Glad to see you're using the blog as a space to study--although I'm not sure you should be posting full runs of class notes.

    However, I did want to write and say not to give any undue weight to items on the study guide based on typos. Recall that I had trouble with the keyboard that led to a variety of misspellings and caps locks.
