Could anyone tell me about the American College in Louvain, Belgium? How do they rate as a seminary? I only really know that Fulton Sheen came from there, and that supposedly they've changed a lot since then.

A good place to start would be the website. Good luck.

Well, to start, that website sends out some red flags. There is a mention of a nun who was there "Director of Pastoral Formation" who was killed in a car accident. May she rest in peace. What is a nun doing as director of Pastoral Formation at a seminary for the priesthood? She was a Eucharistic Minister and was active in "Social Justice" work. Just makes me feel a little uneasy....if you get what I mean. God forgive me if I judge incorrectly. I've heard that Louvain is on the "liberal" side. Can verify that, maybe someone else can.

Why, thank you, Laurent. I'm wondering, do you know if there's a way I can get a copy of a local journal from over there, titled "Communio"? It looks like an annual journal, and I can't find any information on an American publisher.
