<p>yes, I am certainly a holy cross alumni ■■■■■, it is quite clear…</p>
<p>I wouldn’t put too much faith in that web site, required_details. The little blurb on BC alone has 2 errors (BC isn’t the oldest Jesuit university in the country, and the church they mention isn’t even part of BC…it’s merely next to BC).</p>
<p>I’ve lived near Worcester, and never heard a bad word about HC. You don’t need its quality validated by a half-baked web site.</p>
<p>Schmaltz: Good catch. That is a big error. BC isn’t even the oldest Jesuit college in its own state. HC is also a Jesuit college and was founded 20 years before BC. HC is the oldest Jesuit and Catholic college in New England.</p>
