Our Free Read this week is What Happened to Notre Dame? by Charles E. Rice, longtime Professor of Law at the University of Notre Dame Law School, who passed away on February 25. With a preface from Ralph McInerny and a forward by Alfred Freddoso, What Happened to Notre Dame? recounts the details of Notre Dame’s honoring of President Barack Obama in 2009, examines the university’s defiance of the nation’s bishops and of Catholic teaching, and diagnoses the roots of the problem by providing an overview of the Land O’Lakes Declaration, including the ways in which its false autonomy from the Church has led to an erosion of the Catholic identity of Notre Dame and other Catholic universities.
