Nationwide Outrage Building to Notre Dame Scandal


Jack Higgins © 2009 Chicago Sun-Times

In less than one week, nearly 200,000 have signed the petition to Notre Dame's President, Father John Jenkins, C.S.C., declaring it "an outrage and a scandal that 'Our Lady’s University,' one of the premier Catholic universities in the United States, would bestow such an honor on President Obama given his clear support for policies and laws that directly contradict fundamental Catholic teachings on life and marriage."

The Cardinal Newman Society, a sponsor of the petition, is asking that
anyone who has not already signed the petition do so here.

You may also wish to contact Fr. Jenkins: Call him at 574.631.5000, fax him at 574.631.2770, write a personal email president@nd.edu, or mail your letter to 317 Main Building, Notre Dame, IN 46556

Finally, please pray that this venerable institution will stay true to its Catholic heritage and identity.
