He received his secondary education from the Marist fathers at St Bede's College, Christchurch, of which he was dux two years in a row. Duggan then went to Greenmeadows Seminary in Hawkes Bay in Hawke's Bay, where he was professed as a member of the Marist order on 4 February 1931, the day after the 1931 Hawke's Bay earthquake.[3] TrainingIn 1933 Duggan was sent to Rome to continue his theological studies. He was an alumnus of the Pontifical University of St Thomas Aquinas (the Angelicum) of the Dominicans. He was ordained a Catholic priest in Rome on 7 March 1936, the feast day of St Thomas Aquinas. In 1937, he completed his theology studies. His doctoral thesis was on The Church in the Writing of St John Fisher.[3] Academic career and contributionIn 1938 Duggan returned to New Zealand and joined the seminary staff at Mount St Mary's, Greenmeadows to teach philosophy to aspirant Marists. His lifelong philosophic position was his dedication to Thomistic philosophy which he stated was, "the one philosophy that can integrate the wisdom of the past with the facts of modern science". He published several books and also worked in various colleges and parishes throughout New Zealand.{{citation needed|date=March 2018}} He achieved public fame through his books and, especially after his retirement from teaching and from priestly ministry, for his numerous letters to the editor in newspaper and journal columns to defend the traditional position of the Catholic Church in relation to many issues.[4] A Wellington journalist one described Duggan as "chief among the divine publicists".[3] Bibliography
