Religion and the New Congress; Alawite Anxiety in Turkey; Saving Catholic Schools
We discuss religious diversity and the newly-sworn-in members of the 113th Congress; report on growing fears among Turkey's Alawite community about violence and extremism in Syria; and visit two Catholic schools, each in its own way fighting off declining enrollments and trying to preserve the value of a Catholic education, for both rich and poor.
