Holy Cross College: ‘This is a place that is deeply spiritual’

We catch up with Marco Clark, President of Holy Cross College at Notre Dame.

Catholic Herald: To start with, could you just give me a thumbnail sketch of Holy Cross College?

Marco Clark: Sure. Holy Cross College was founded in 1966 by the Brothers of the Congregation of Holy Cross. In 2003, we became a four-year college and so we are now celebrating our 20th year as a four-year college. We are small, with roughly 500 undergraduate students, all of whom are in the tri-campus community which includes the University of Notre Dame. It’s a broad and diverse population – 35 per cent of our students are the first generation of their family to be in college.
