And with a Commitment to DEI, no less...Well Done! As an Alum it is a continuing source of pride.

You're not an alum.

Say whatever you want...one thing for sure, ND is firmly Committed to DEI...has been and always will
be.
Explain what DEI means to you. I'm genuinely curious

I agree wholeheartedly with ND's "Commitment to DEI" statement...the Board of Trustees put it
in writing...it's available on line...check it out.
I asked what it meant to YOU, not Notre Dame

Promise me you'll read the entire linked ND Trustees Task Force Report on DEI and I'll give you my
much more abbreviated thoughts on the matter.

Bizarre Strawman. Check that box.

The Administration and Board of Trustees could not be any clearer in their
support for DEI…and it’s clear from the award that it works. Learn from that.
He's part of the board hiarchy

I think he said he went to Notre Dame University

This is a VERY impressive achievement.

All around, Dowd is off to a good start.

Yes, but it seems Jenkins would have earned this more at this early stage

Not a fan of Jenks. Thankfully, his time is over.
He had plenty of time to win the award.
Time for Dowd to shine.
Fr Jenkins is a nice guy, and from what he has said, he agrees with you.......
I was lucky enough to be able to attend his farewell speech.
I get the feel that from a philosophical standpoint, Fr Dowd probably will align with Fr Jenkins (and you and I are in agreement on the strengths and weaknesses of that).
On a more superficial note, from a football program standpoint, Fr Dowd cares a LOT more about it than Fr Hesburgh, Fr Malloy, or Fr Jenkins did.
I have a different opinion of Jenks. To each his own.

No, I agree with your opinion. We are n the same page.
I will never forget his behavior during the Obama speech. The only peaceful protestors that were ever arrested on Notre Dame's campus were the pro Life protestors who merely stood by with signs. The university insisted on pressing charges aggressively the entire way through the court system.
When I said that he was a "nice Guy, I should probably amend that to "he is cordial". I am very glad that he is gone, but i don't think you will see much difference with Dowd based on what I heard, though the jury is still out.
