Unfortunately, at Notre Dame we really do not at present have anything like a core curriculum of the sort I have just pointed to…. Every year at graduation time, when I hear all the high-minded and idealized talk about the integration of faith and reason at Notre Dame, I worry that very few of our graduates leave this place with anything like an intellectually integrated view of the world (or even the seeds of such) or with anything like an intellectually mature Faith. In this regard, we are just like a lot of other schools, both religious and secular, and especially like other research universities.
