Dear topher,

“Father Jenkins and Notre Dame eventually saw all the charges dropped against these people.”

You view things a little too optimistically. Fr. Jenkins had to be dragged kicking and screaming to do the right thing, here, and only after investigations showed evidence that Notre Dame had treated pro-ABORT protestors at Notre Dame far more favorably, giving rise to potential multi-million-dollar lawsuits against this hellhole.

The fact is that Notre Dame is an anti-Catholic institution with a vibrant Catholic minority community.

My son was accepted at Notre Dame for the coming year, but our visit there this past fall persuaded him that it isn't really much of a place for any self-respecting Catholic.

Back in September, 2011, Father Jenkins criticized Obama over the HHS mandate:

LifeSiteNews.com aritcle:

Notre Dame prez to Obama on contraception mandate: what happened to the ‘sensible approach’?

Though I agree with you that Notre Dame is far from being a good Catholic school, at least Father Jenkins has gone from giving Obama an honorary degree to criticizing him last September to now filing a lawsuit against Obama's HHS.
