Seminarians had virtually no lives of their own. They could leave their residence only in groups, and could never enter a store or restaurant. They could not take secular newspapers. They could not even wear trousers; instead, the members of the more than 200 scattered residential colleges, representing 78 countries, wore colored cassocks, each color denoting a different nationality, and round, flat hats...
