Catholic University Set to Open in Communist Vietnam

CNA: After 40 years, the first Catholic Church-operated university opened in Vietnam since the advent of communism in the country.

“The institute aims to enhance theological knowledge and competence among all priests, religious and laypeople,” Bishop Joseph Dinh Duc Dao, rector of the institute, said at the opening ceremony according to UCA News.

There have not been Church-run schools in the country since 1975, when communist rule took over the country. More here.
