That was from a brief article in CNS. He received his doctorate in theology and a licentiate in canon law from the pontifical university of the holy cross in Rome, one of the nom-de-plume's used by opus.

 He received his stl while attending theological college in washington under the direction of the Sulpicians - which gives me some hope.
After suffering under "Mansion Murphy" and his climber predecessor for the last 20 years I was really hoping for a Francis smell-of-the-sheep guy for the poor people of the diocese.

Ah well advent is a time of hope....
