About University of St. Joseph's College

According to Wikipedia, The University of St. Joseph's College was the leading Acadian cultural institution, an Acadian Catholic university in Memramcook, New Brunswick that closed in 1966, when it was forced to be amalgamated with two other Catholic Acadian colleges to form the secular Université de Moncton.The process of amalgamation excluded a full reflection of the founding Catholic Culture of the Acadian people, fostering a colonizing secularization of Acadian life. The Collège Saint-Joseph, the Université Sacré-Cœur in Bathurst, and the Université Saint-Louis d'Edmundston suspend their respective charters and assume the status of affiliated colleges in the secular Université de Moncton, named after the city of Moncton. which in turn was named after General Robert Monckton the British General who directed the Acadian deportation.
