Although I understand your perspective, it is a bit too extreme.
Notre Dame is a Catholic school with Catholic values practiced daily. Great for elementary school & for high school, but a little too much for one's college years. Great school for one who craves a Catholic environment 24/7, but too restrictive for those who wish to exercise adult freedom(s) during their college years.
FWIW Definitely less restrictive than Mormon BYU.
They just reaffirmed how hateful and closed minded they really are:

Not hateful but you clearlt are. They are a Catholic institution and its great to see that they hold to those principles. Plenty of other hospitals willing to do such elective procedures on genetically true XX and XY individuals.
