Catholic identity will mean nothing in the world of higher education if it lacks a genuine intellectual dimension. Mark Roche understands that fundamental fact, tackles the problem directly, and deals with it cogently."" - Philip Gleason, author of Contending with Modernity: Catholic Higher Education in the Twentieth Century

Mark W. Roche presents a clear, precise, and positive view of the challenge and promise of a Catholic university. Roche makes visible the ideal of a Catholic university and illuminates in original ways the diverse, but interconnected, dimensions of Catholic identity. Roche’s vision of the distinct intellectual mission of a Catholic university will appeal to Catholics as well as to persons who are not Catholic but who may recognize through this essay the unexpected allure of a Catholic university.

Mark W. Roche is the Rev. Edmund P. Joyce, C.S.C., Professor of German Language and Literature and concurrent professor of philosophy at the University of Notre Dame. From 1997 to 2008 Roche served as dean of Notre Dame’s College of Arts and Letters. His books include Realizing the Distinctive University: Vision and Values, Strategy and Culture (2017) and Why Choose the Liberal Arts? (2010), both published by the University of Notre Dame Press. Why Choose the Liberal Arts? received the 2012 Frederic W. Ness Book Award from the Association of American Colleges and Universities.
