Minnesota Parish "Canonizes" Three New Saints?

Click on the picture for a better view!

This is truly unbelievable, but then many have made themselves popes in their own minds!

The Saint Lawrence Catholic Parish and Newman Center for the University of Minnesota has set up a special prayer chapel area complete with kneelers to pray to the following "saints" of the Catholic Church. Notice the halo surrounding each of the "saint's" heads.

So who are these new saints? Looking at the picture, they are:

"Saint" Dorothy Day in the upper left corner.
"Saint" Martin Luther King in the upper right corner.
"Saint" Gandhi of India in the bottom left corner and,
There is a new devotional name for Our Lady - the Our Lady of the Disappeared [whoever this is]- in the bottom right corner of the picture.

According to information in the Newman Center, this prayer chapel has been located here since 1966. And Catholics wonder why Catholics in the US are so confused...

And I haven't even mentioned the "corpus" on the cross....What's wrong with these people?

For what it's worth, let's look at the Code of Canon Law which discusses this matter:

Can. 1186: To foster the sanctification of the people of God, the Church commends to the special and filial veneration of Christ's faithful the Blessed Mary ever-Virgin, the Mother of God, whom Christ constituted the Mother of all. The Church also promotes the true and authentic cult of the other Saints, by whose example the faithful are edified and by whose intercession they are supported.

Can. 1187: Only those servants of God may be venerated by public cult who have been numbered by ecclesiastical authority among the Saints or the Blessed.

Is a Catholic to understand that some ecclesiastical authority has approved these new "saints"?

Previously posted here was a episode at a parish in the St Louis Archdiocese where a picture of "Saint" MLK, complete with a votive candle, was displayed in the sanctuary next to the altar during Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, initiated, as we were led to understand, by St Cronan's pastor.
