Catholic girls gone wild

Just ran across this from the Cardinal Newman Society.

Study: Female Students More Promiscuous at Catholic Colleges
Researchers from Mississippi State University looked at a survey of 1,000 college students nationwide and were surprised to find that “women attending colleges and universities affiliated with the Catholic Church are almost four times as likely to have participated in ‘hooking up’ compared to women at secular schools. A “hook up” is defined as a casual physical encounter with a male student, without the expectation of an ongoing relationship.
Guess I should have went to a Catholic college....  KIDDING.

I wonder if universities like ... 
Marquette University - Milwaukee
St. Norbert's College - De Pere
Viterbo University - La Crosse

... have their recruiters train to elbow/wink/nudge male prospects with this study. 

Found a list of all Catholic Wisconsin colleges.  Not sure if this is up to date(I bet Dad29 knows).

In all seriousness, it would be great to see a Catholic college in Wisconsin take its identity seriously.  Catholic universities must engage the secular culture, not sleep with her.

**Update
Only 39 Catholic women were interviewed for this study!

"St Francis Seminary" no longer exists.

And that's a good thing, more or less.

There is still a website with info. Maybe they are shipping these guys off somewhere else though?

Training is split between undergrad courses at Cdl Stritch, MU, and Sacred Heart Sem.

So, in a way, there "is" a St Francis Sem...but it's certainly not a location-for-schooling.
