Father Jenkins can still save the day and all embarrassment for the university by:

1-Removing the statue on the dome and the mural.
2-Disclaiming the Catholic origins of the University.
3-Renaming the school.
4-Not allowing priests to wear the Roman collar at graduation ceremonies.

IN his me too zeal to faun all over the first black president, Fr. Jenkins grossly "misunderestimated" the zeal of Catholics and their continued belief in the teachings of the Church Fr. Jenkins is supposed to represent.

In the past ten years or so, the good priests at Notre Dame seem to have forgotten how to be Catholics themselves when they fired Joe Moore telling him he was too old, or when they humiliated George O'Leary after themselves failing to do a background check on his resume, or on again humiliating one of their own, Paul Hornung, who merely pointed out the obvious in perhaps an inarticulate manner, or on how they treat alumni and fans at football game tailgate parties. None of those are moments of which to be happy. I am not proud of the leadership of my alma mater and it isn't just over the Obama invitation.
