[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Out of the hundred or so schools she could pick why that one if this may even be a small issue for her? [/quote]

OP here.  Well, we're trying to figure out if it IS an issue.  I attended Georgetown (graduate school) and it might as well have been a secular school. I know nothing about ND.[/quote]

She will be totally fine.

The thing that kids at Notre Dame will value is the social service side of things. Not the theological particulars. If she's going to a presbyterian church and volunteering, absolutely no one at Notre Dame is going to give her a hard time.

The bigger issue is that Notre Dame is a very front facing Catholic school. They are not shy about it. Touchdown Jesus is a thing. The grotto. The masses. Notre Dame is not hiding anything. They are a Catholic school.

But everyone is welcome. And it's not like every student is going to Latin mass every morning. But Notre Dame is a pretty Catholic environment. A priest is always going to be the Chancellor. So, the bigger question is does she feel cool there. There will be a lot of crucifixes. A lot of Marys. It's part of the environment. [/quote]
