A former adjunct professor of religion at Chestnut Hill College who was dismissed from his post because he is gay announced this afternoon that a settlement has been reached between himself and the Catholic-based institution.
Father James St. George, 45, said in a statement issued by his publicist that he had reached "an amicable resolution with Chestnut Hill College that will end this controversy."
The resolution reached over the weekend was "consistent with the religious beliefs of each party," the statement said. The cleric asked the news media to "respect the privacy of this resolution."
