A Convention-going Colleague's Stories (1 of 2): Catholic college.

Before the cabride home, one of my convention-going colleagues was talking about teaching at a Catholic college, and since he was raised in a small community where everyone was raised liberal Catholic, he didn't even know there were other ways of being Catholic until he got to be a prof at a small West Coast school and came across some conservative Catholic students.

"It can be odd," he was like.  "Somehow the state of the school came up, and they said the problem was that the President didn't have enough authority!"

Then, he paused and gulped and then continued on.

"I mean, that's some kinky proto-fascist bullshit, right there!"
