"These individuals are typically very wealthy, well-connected and highly accomplished; many with broad interests outside the university."
None are "wealthier" or more "well-connected" than God.
Point, Game, Set, Match!

"In conclusion, a review of the Board of Trustees at Notre Dame does NOT reveal a particularly strong Catholic identity."
And therein, lies the rub...we've got a "Catholic" university run by a bunch of non-Catholics!

It is amazing how so many trusts get taken over by the libs. And there is no way of getting them out after they take over.

And they choose to serve the “prince of power of this world”. They just need to stop calling themselves “Catholic” as they go about it.

Considering that this move was oppossed by ‘well connected and highly accomplished’ bishops and cardinals, I wonder how long it will be before Fr. Jenkins is assigned to his new job as St. Bernard ass-wiper in some remote Swiss canton?

Many of the influential alumni on the Notre Dame board are from the nearby Chicago area, and are part of the same Chicago power structure that President Obama ascendedAnyone have a list of how the board and the Ayers/Obama set are connected?

They're probably “connected” at the hip. LOL
Well, at this point, we can only hope & pray that Air Force One is “grounded” tomorrow for some unknown reason.

Ahhh—but of course...follow the money! Principles be damned! To be righteously rich is a crime these days...but to be rich through evil, leftist leanings is an honor bestowed in this twisted game the elitists play.

“if” what has been reported that Fr. Jenkins is on the board of some “pro-abortion” outfit, I suspect he will be history at ND sooner rather than later...

>>But Fr. Jenkins, like all university presidents, must consider the will of the schools governing board.<<
But, but, I was only following orders. Didn’t work at Nurenburg and it doesn’t work now.
Baby killers are inhumane.

This is a very interesting article. They seem to be largely a list of Midwest pro-Obama politically connected people. Of course, we owe the whole lay take over to the dread Fr Theodore Hesburgh.

***At this crossroads, we must be a place where people of good will are received with charity, are able to speak, be heard, and engage in responsible and reasoned dialogue.***
“Reasoned dialogue” means we must all be open minded even when we’re discussing the murder of babies.
In addition, “dialogue” means discussion between two people. O’s speech will be a monologue. But Father Jenkins didn’t mention that.

. In the Catholic tradition, our first allegiance is to God in Christ, yet we are called to respect, participate in, and contribute to the wider society.
Jenkin's is a double talker - he writes the above to the graduating class and his choice iss #2 - NOT putting God first. Keyes is doing both - puts God first and participating/contributing to the wider society.
To: kellynla
I pointed this out earlier.
Hesburgh led the revolt of Catholic colleges against the Church, at the infamous Land o’ Lakes Conference.
One of his innovations was to transfer ownership of the university to a lay board of trustees.
These trustees are, of course, in bed with the administration in an incestuous relationship. The dissident presidents of Notre Dame get the kind of trustees that they choose, and the trustees get the kind of presidents that they support.
Of course the trustees will continue to back Jenkins.

If Jenkins believes that - why is Keyes, the 80 yr old priest and others in jail.
