The University Chaplaincy is particularly concerned about a growing lack of tolerance towards irregular immigrants among both University students and staff.

The Chaplaincy is thus dedicating this year's first dialogue meeting to discuss this issue with academic staff.

The present debate in Malta is leading to a misinterpretation of the Christian position on this issue. The Chaplaincy, therefore to promote a true Christian response, will organise a discussion on this issue by presenting the most recent statements of the Church on the matter on Friday between 7.45 and 9.15 p.m. at Dar Manwel Magri.

The main speakers are Dr Katrine Camilleri, assistant director of the Jesuit Refugee Service, and Dr Ruth Farrugia, representing the Church's Emigrants' Commission and lecturer at the Faculty of Laws. Further information from Fr Jimmy Bartolo, University Chaplain, on tel. 2340-2341 or e-mail: chaplaincy@um.edu.mt.
