No. Notre Dame was founded by a group of French priests, who were not looking to compete with Harvard.

Notre Dame was founded by non-slaveholders in a free state where slavery had been prohibited by the Northwest Ordinance before it began to be settled by white people. If there was ever any slavery there it was practiced by the indigenous people who were later forced to leave by the white Americans. So to say that Notre Dame owes reparations makes no sense...unless your starting point is that all white people owe reparations to black people just by virtue of being born white.

Except football and basketball teams, based on merit, not diversity?

They’re trying to become extinct and irrelevant, like my alma mater, Wheaton — which used to stand for something extremely special.

” “We must acknowledge how white institutions contribute to black disadvantage and commit to the appropriate remedies,” she said.”

Then create your own Black Institutions that raise Blacks - funny how they hate Whites and blame them for everything but claim to want to mingle and become just like them...
