September 28th, 1922: St. Josemaria receives the tonsure

St. Josemaria is given the tonsure by Cardinal Soldevila in a chapel of the Episcopal palace. St. Josemaria then was appointed as Inspector of the San Carlos Seminary, a position he held until the day of his ordination to the priesthood. Back then, the Inspectors of the Seminary were all ordained priests - St. Josemaria was the first one to obtain this title prior to his ordination.
