Unfortunately the moral stagnation at ND goes far beyond Fr. Jenkins and into the Board of Trustees.
ND is a terrific university with very high standards for ALL students. If all universities were held to ND's standards there would be fewer but smarter sports programs.
Congratulations to the University....Now they have to get rid of the Pres...Fr Jenkins for allowing the most PRO Aborition Pres we have ever had to speak at graduation two years ago....he should be ashemed of himself...Bow you you #%$@^&**&^%
