Like I said a majority of the student body and faculty are pro-choice cafeteria Catholics. You really wanna argue that? The place is a liberal cesspool like almost all the other big name schools. Lots of pious Catholic universities in the US, Notre Dame is no longer on of them. Should have sent your kid to Michigan saved 10k a year and gotten a better education.

Notre Dame has it's issues and there are many liberal professors there, but I would hesitate to call it a cesspool. Unfortunately, the prior leadership, Fr. Monk Malloy embraced multiculturalism over his own Catholicism. However, there are also many very devout and good Catholic professors there. If you know which classes to take and where to look, they are there.

Thanks for the tip, but he's getting a swell education where he is. We actually visited Michigan when he was looking at schools; we left unimpressed, and unless you're in-state, their financial aid sucks. Notre Dame's School of Architecture is rated much higher, too. Of course, they were working hard to reinstitute affirmative action at the time, so that didn't sit well, either. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more liberal town than Ann Arbor!

Besides, as a Buckeye, the idea was, simply, repellent.
