Marist
College (formerly known as St. Ann's Normal Training School and later on Marian
College after a dormitory of the same name), was founded by a French Catholic religious order called the Marist Brothers of the Schools. It received its
4 year
college charter in 1946 under the leadership of Brother Paul Ambrose Fontaine.
While the school likes to pompously pretend it "follows in the tradition of great institutions like Harvard University and the
College of William and Mary that were founded as seminaries and developed into independent academies of higher learning" because its ownership was transferred from the Brothers to an independent board of trustees in 1969, the truth is that this move was taken by many Catholic colleges in the country to assure federal aid.
However, following its modern history of trying to distance itself from its Catholic identity in its promotional materials and administration, the school was declared "no longer Catholic" in 2003; though it still maintains a few resident "forgotten" Marist Brothers in the shadow of its Ultra right wing
gay hating, Abercrombie wearing, social justice ignorant, inebriated manwhore population whose worry about the new Facebook "newsfeeds" takes precedence over the starving children in nuclear
North Korea and a dwindling economy under the nation's worst but campus-favorite president (which not even a self respecting
Republican supports).

Hey Kyle, where are you going?"
"Oh I'm just going to say
hi to Brother Don."
"Brother who?"
"Hey what happened to that statue of Our Lady that used to be by the chapel?"
"Oh I think they sold it on ebay to fund the flavored condom and dental dam distribution at the Health Center"
