Carol Marin’s Latest Documentary On The Priesthood To Air Feb. 1 On Discovery/Time Channel

Five DePaul Student Interns Credited as Production Assistants

Students of the DePaul Documentary Project (DDP), headed by award-winning journalist and Chicago Sun-Times columnist Carol Marin and her partner Don Moseley, can once again take a bit of the credit for the duo’s latest documentary, “Keeping the Faith: Becoming a Priest in Today’s Catholic Church,” which will air Feb. 1 at 9 p.m. CST on Discovery/Time cable network.

“Keeping the Faith” seeks to explore the reasons why a man would enter seminary and begin the journey toward priesthood in the midst of a historic sexual abuse scandal in the Roman Catholic Church. The documentary focuses on five seminarians of the Mount Saint Mary’s Seminary of the West in Cincinnati.

Five former and present interns in the DDP worked on the piece and are listed as production assistants in the credits for the film. The DDP, launched in the fall of 2003, is the first professional documentary center within a Chicago university and is structured to train students in the art of broadcast journalism.
