When Archbishop Timothy Dolan was our Abp in Milwaukee he rejuvenated our Seminary which had just about closed under the previous Abp, Rembert Weakland. They just ordained the largest class of Seminarians in years. I hope we get someone who can keep this trend going. Under Weakland we had several years when there were NO ordinations. THe people of NY are so lucky!

Notre Dame Seminary in New Orleans has been a problem for years because of extremely liberal faculty and feminist nuns on the board who had been rejecting more orthodox candidates.

Recently, they've gotten a new Rector, and many of the more egregious personnel are no longer there. So young men who weren't comfortable before, or were rejected, are now considering it again.
