Gay Unitarian Named Dean of Catholic College

A Catholic college in Vermont is getting an openly-homosexual dean, according to a story in 'Out in the Mountains,' Vermont’s “voice for lesbians, gay men, bisexuals, [and] transgender people.”

The story, written by Stacey Horn, says that “Professor Jeffrey Trumbower, a gay man and a Unitarian, has been appointed dean of St. Michael’s College, a Catholic school established in 1904 by the Society of Saint Edmund, a French order of Catholic priests.

It is well past time for bishops to denounce and condemn certain actions and positions of colleges and universities which claim to be Catholic. Failing to do so has the implication of giving tacit approval to the actions of so-called "Catholic" colleges. It is a grave scandal that such colleges are permitted to be called "Catholic".
