Note from a Josephinum Alumnus[edit]

I greatly expanded this article when I did some research on the origin of the institution. When I attended PCJ in the early 70s I knew only a smattering of information on the school and its founder. With the internet, it is possible to fill in a lot of gaps.

I also created an article on Joseph Jessing, the founder of the seminary because, when I did some research at the Ohio Memory archives, I was really amazed at what this immigrant from Germany had accomplished. From childhood to his service in the Prussian army to his life in the US - truly amazing but little appreciated accomplishments for one man. Wanted to share his story - It needs a wider audience.

After leaving PCJ, I finished my studies at Michigan State University, and became a US Marine Officer active and reserve for over 20 years. Hence a better appreciation of Jessing's years as a soldier in that institution of "blood and iron," the Prussian Army.

I'm also looking for an out-of-copyright black and white photo of the school. SimonATL 23:33, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PC?[edit]

"This trend continues today along with many other politically correct initiatives"

This statement appears to be biased and prejudicially opinionated. Referring to someone or thing as being PC is usually done in a pejorative manner. The Wikipedia article on the topic of political correctness says that "In modern usage, the terms PC, politically correct, and political correctness are generally pejorative descriptors" [[1]] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:E:2680:3CD:5178:12F:51A8:E927 (talk) 09:11, 19 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
