‘Anyone who doesn’t know how to define what a woman is, should not be employed’ at the school
A group of Saint Mary’s College affiliates want to take back their school from the administration who they say have betrayed the Catholic faith.
A letter, sent on March 19 to the administration, comes after the Catholic college in South Bend, Indiana announced and then retracted its new policy to admit males who falsely claim to be female.
The group identified five areas for improvement after discussions with students, alumni, and parents.
One is a simple hiring test – define what a woman is. Since President Kate Conboy thinks men can become women, that would eliminate her from being hired.
The letter states:
The petitioners have other suggestions to clean up Saint Mary’s College, such as increasing the number of professors who are actually Catholic. They want to see professors take the Oath Against Modernism. It used to be required of not just priests, but also professors.
It is not a complicated oath – it says someone pledges to hold true to what the Catholic Church teaches. The oath would be out of place at a public agricultural university, but is necessary at a Catholic institute.
That might cause irreligious free-speech advocates to shutter, but it is actually good for colleges to have missions, dogmas, and doctrines.
The letter’s authors do not hold back in its views of President Conboy, calling her “the most anti-Catholic president in the history of SMC.”
“Catholicism interferes with President Conboy’s agenda,” they also wrote.

The college belongs not to Conboy or professors who push dissident views. “This college belongs to women. This college belongs to the Catholic Church,” the petitioners write.
