WYNNEWOOD, Pa. (AP) - U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito Jr. will address the graduates of a Roman Catholic seminary near Philadelphia.
Alito is scheduled to speak at the Concursus ceremony Wednesday at St. Charles Borromeo (bor-oh-MAY’-oh) Seminary in Wynnewood.
Seminarians will receive their degrees at the ceremony as will clergy and lay students who are enrolled in the seminary’s college and graduate degree programs.
Alito will receive an honorary degree from the seminary, which has similarly honored St. Mother Teresa, Pennsylvania Chief Justice Robert N.C. Nix and others.
The seminary was founded in 1832 and is the primary institution for those studying to be priests in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.
