Becoming the Notre Dame the world needs
John T. McGreevy
The University of Notre Dame must be the leading global Catholic research university, on par with but distinct from the world's best private research universities. This effort to educate students and conduct research at the highest level animated by a shared Catholic mission is one of the most exciting and consequential experiments in global higher education.
As provost, John T. McGreevy is Notre Dame’s chief academic officer and is responsible for the stewardship of this mission, serving as the principal representative of the academy to both internal and external constituencies and leading strategic academic initiatives on behalf of the University. Working with the associate provosts, the vice president for research, the deans, the University librarian, and other academic leaders, he seeks to cultivate an inclusive learning community that challenges and engages students, inspires leading research and scholarship, and appreciates all intellectual inquiry as a pursuit of truth.

Sherif Girgis
Professor of Law
Catholics have been thinking systematically about law and justice for 2,000 years. To join a conversation populated by intellectual and moral giants—to develop their insights and bring them to bear on the pressing questions of our own public life—is a huge honor. And to get to do it while working with colleagues and students I love and admire is really more than I deserve.
