Do you mean that you are currently discerning whether you have a calling to the priesthood, and/or that you are a student there and can attest to a shift toward more orthodox Catholic teaching?

If the latter, that’s good news! If also the former, that is also good news and I will keep you in prayer!

The priesthood is not my vocation - despite the best efforts of many Jesuits. However, I am a recent alumnus, and, for a variety of reasons, can report that there has been a conscious shift in both the administration’s and the trustees’ viewpoints concerning orthodoxy within the school. There in a concerted effort to make BC the foremost institution of Catholic thought in the United States, with greater filial obedience to Rome. Further, while the school may teach some heterodox doctrines, we know Rome itself is cracking down on heretical teachings, and BC will likely comply without resistance, unlike, say, Georgetown or some of the other schools in the country.
