My legacy at Notre Dame, Our Mother, goes back to the 1920s with my grandfather, then an uncle in the 50's, a brother in the late 70's, and me in the early 80's. I met my husband at Notre Dame, our two older children are graduates, our third child is currently a Senior, and our youngest is working hard to continue the legacy come Fall of 2016.
It is with great sadness that our beloved university's administration is even considering for a second to eliminate the theology requirements from the curriculum. Why is it that we have to succumb to a society which is trying to eliminate God at a time when the world needs HIM the most. And, for Notre Dame to want to eliminate theology from her curriculum is appalling. The reason that Notre Dame is what it is is because we are unique from any other school. We demand higher standards, principles, morals, values, academics, social expectations. We are God, Country, Notre Dame....!
Don't take away our uniqueness. Be proud of our Catholic foundation and what it stands for.
