[13] The archbishop's original plans were to give the positions of chair of theology to members of the order he belonged to: the Society of Jesus.
Since the rector was elected among the chairs of the Faculty of Theology by sortition and he had a vital role in the appointment of the rest of the academic positions, it would not be surprising that in a short time the Jesuits had taken control over the institution.
