Michael - Thank you for your continued courageous defense of the Roman Catholic Faith!

I am sure that you know about this school only from what you have been told by the people at the school, the public relations pieces that it produces, etc. My family has been friends with the founder of the school, many of the members of the board, many of the faculty since the inception of the school. Two years ago, two of my children accepted full ride scholarships because I was not aware of what was happening. One of my sons also worked there. When I was apprised of the situation, I withdrew my children immediately and am now paying for college for them to avoid the toxicity at this school. It is important to know that all that glitters is not gold and that the leadership of this organization has acted unethically and in un-Catholic ways. Here are some sample data points …

The president of the college …
- suggested to the staff to lie to governmental officials regarding the financial management of the school;
- continuously abused the faculty and staff by yelling filthy epithets;
- lied repeatedly to faculty, staff, and the dean about unpaid bills;
- summarily fired the dean of students (the only scholastic they ever had on the faculty) when he refused to cooperate with the aforementioned unethical, un-Catholic behavior - a father of five without notice, cause or meaningful separation pay with which to support his family.
- summarily fired other staff members when they brought these irregularities to the Board’s attention;
- has overseen a revolving door of faculty and staff at the school over the last couple years.

The school …
- does not tell the truth in the description of the college. They claim to be scholastic, but do not have one scholastic on the faculty, staff or board – just because you mention or admire St. Thomas doesn’t make you Thomistic or Scholastic;
- has been through multiple deans, faculty and staff in the last two years – Who is the current dean?
- the board may have been overhauled yet again, but the board was not substantially Traditional as of the last time the president shuffled it two years ago. How can a school with a board that is not Traditional be Traditional?
- claimed on Angelqueen that the school has 400 students. No clarity was given around this. This would represent hyper growth from two years ago of six (6) college students, six (6) high school then they merged with an online school a year or so ago. Misrepresentation? I report - you decide.

Far from making faceless accusations I am happy to address each and every one of these items (and more) publicly with the president of the college (or anyone else for that matter) even on his (their) own campus to bring clarity to the situation, but I have a feeling that that won’t be happening any time soon. I am also available for private discussion if preferred.

God bless and, as always, be vigilant against wolves in sheep's clothing!
