Acton University Blog Roundup, Days 1 & 2
Acton University Blog Roundup, Days 1 & 2
Jan 15, 2026 8:25 PM

Today began the second full day of classes at Acton U, and while the conference has been very busy, a few of the bloggers present have had a chance to post some reflections, reactions, and notes.

Fr. Z has had an active few days and has managed to post three Acton University posts so far:

Report on Acton U – I – “Acton University…is the most authentically ecumenical event I have ever attended. It doesn’t set up to be obviously ecumenical, of course. Perhaps that why you find an authentic ecumenism here. ”Report on Acton U – IIReport on Acton U – III

Eric Larson at RedState Electric is experiencing his first Acton University and shared some great observations about the four foundational courses that he attended yesterday.

Denis E. Ambrose Jr has two great Acton U posts on his blog “Provoking the Muse”.

Here is his post about the first night with an outline of Rev. Sirico’s opening remarks, andhere are his reflections on day 2.

If you’ve been blogging Acton University and I’ve missed you, please let me know!

People have also been active on the Acton University Twitter feed, and we’re working on some audio for later today.

Stay tuned for more from Acton University!
