Conservative Catholic Book (1 of 5): Seminary nicknames.



From Michael S. Rose’s “Goodbye! Good Men: How Catholic Seminaries Turned Away Two Generations of Vocations from the Priesthood” (2002) (p. 92):

According to former seminarians and recently ordained priests, this “gay subculture” is so prominent at certain seminaries that these institutions have earned nicknames such as Notre Flame (for Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans) and Theological Closet (for Theological College at the Catholic University of America in Washington D.C.).  St. Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore has earned the nicknamed, “The Pink Palace.”
