It seems rather sad the Notre Dame can't come up with any American who has greatly contributed to the Catholic Church; does this mean that there is such a split among the faculty/officers that just what is a great contribution is open to fierce debate?

Choosing to be with my father when he died was a hard decision. It was also a good one.
Like my discernment to enter religious life, it was a gut reaction I acted on and did not look back.
