[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a DS whose stats match up pretty well for Notre Dame.  He wants to be in the Midwest (we moved here five years ago from WI) and wants to be in a smaller town or a suburb of a larger town.  Not wanting to be isolated (ie no Kenyon), but a University of Chicago type school is out.  So here's the dilemma- how Catholic is notre Dame?  We are Catholic (on paper at least), so he is not at all against crucifixes in the classroom, prayer, and the like.  BUT we fall more in line with the 'Cafeteria Catholic' line of thinking, only go to church a few times a year outside Christmas and Easter, fairly liberal, etc.  No interest in a school where the large majority is uber-conversative.  Does that rule out Notre Dame?

Hopefully I am not opening a can of worms here :)[/quote]

what is it about Notre Dame that is a good match? Academics? Reputation? A particular major? The size feels just right? Division I sports program? Would you consider schools affiliated with another denomination, particularly if the religious aspects aren't front and center? State universities? There's a lot of options in Wisconsin and Minnesota that meet that smaller town or suburb criteria.[/quote]
