message: Chonak, I don't know why you deleted some of the notable persons.  You called them "non-notables" in your edit.  Do you have a clue about theologians?  Rev. Romanus Cessario, O.P. is a world renown theologian, an author of several books, the senior editor of Magnificat, and much more.  His curriculum vitae is 31 pages.
Additionally, why did you delete Dr. Philip Crotty?  He is certainly notable, just look at his curriculum vitae.
Furthermore, Rev. Daniel P. Moloney deserves to be listed as a notable alumnus.  Prior to seminary, he graduated from Yale, Notre Dame and Santa Croce (Rome); he taught at Notre Dame and Princeton.  He was an editor at First Things.  Worked for the Heritage Foundation.  He has written for many publications including the Wall Street Journal and the National Review.
Chonak, do your research before you delete people calling them "non-notables" while they are certainly notable within their fields.  Maybe you don't know of them, but people around the world do, including bishops and cardinals, and their work is very much recognized and notable. Frostandchill (talk) 05:54, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

message: Major Seminary does not simply mean "graduate-level".  There is a careful distinction between a graduate school and a major seminary.  Major seminary means that it is a seminary which prepares specifically for priestly ordination.  Diaconal and then Priestly ordination is the terminus, the end goal of the major seminary, not simply a Master's degree.  There are more dimensions to a major seminary than just offering graduate-level courses.  Please see the St. John's mission website for further elaboration.

* 1966 student protest, documented in a Times article and this Time article.  More in this profile of Bp. Lennon.
* 1898 description of the seminary, in American Ecclesiastical Review
* A fairly unimportant item: Cdl. O'Connell's grave has to be moved as a condition of the land sale to BC
* A review of Boston sex-abuse cases found most priests involved studied at SJS in the 1950s, 1960s: Herald article

message: Some of the faculty who are not SJS alumni are listed with notations of certain years: e.g, '00, '98, '11, etc. Can this be clarified? (Compare with the listing on the SJS website .) Bistropha (talk) 06:38, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
