CORRECTION Land O Lakes
From page 14
Holy Cross Father John Jenkins, the
current president of Notre Dame, writing
about the Land O’ Lakes statement in an
America magazine article posted online
July 11, said that “despite the brevity of
a document composed swiftly,” the state-
ment “presented a bold, hopeful vision
informed by Vatican II.”
“The document’s limitations left
questions to be addressed, but the vision
in broad outline is one that makes truly
serious Catholic research universities
possible for our time,” he added, stress-
ing that Catholic leaders should acknowl-
edge and correct the limitations of the
text but also “continue to strive to realize
its vision.”
Jesuit Father Christopher Collins, St.
Louis University’s assistant to the presi-
dent for mission and identity, said the
tension that Catholic universities face
today are not unlike those the Land O’
Lakes writers considered.
In many ways, he said, today’s
Catholic universities are living out that
call of Pope Francis, to be at the periph-
eries.
“It’s messy and confusing, but it’s
exciting. It’s good stuff,” he said.
