The show, set for Wednesday at the University Center, is to include runway and lip-sync competitions with local drag entertainer Tootie serving as emcee.
"The teachings on Catholic social justice do not align with this event, and anyone with a formed Christian conscience cannot approve an event that is sexually perverse," said lawyer Charles LiMandri, a Rancho Santa Fe lawyer, USD graduate and former member of the alumni board.
