What makes a Catholic institution, Catholic?

From Bishop Robert Vasa (Diocese of Baker, OR):

…an institution is identified as Catholic precisely because the bishop has given his consent for the use of that title. This giving of consent, however, is not only a one-time event. It is rather the establishment of an ongoing consensual relationship and persists only as long as the bishop continues to give his consent.
