This long-awaited, last installment of Reverend Edward A. Malloy's
three-volume memoir examines his eighteen years as president of the
University of Notre Dame from 1987 to 2005. In this candid and
lively account, Malloy, or "Monk" to all who know him, shares his
reflections on his presidency following the long-term leadership of
Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C. Malloy describes his transition into
the presidency, his approach to leadership, issues related to
Catholic identity, the importance of fund-raising, and finding the
proper balance in intercollegiate athletics. Communication issues
were of paramount importance during Malloy's tenure, and he
discusses how he fostered good relationships with the surrounding
community, and supported trustees, administration, faculty, and
other important constituencies in the governance of the university.
An inveterate multitasker, he also examines how he organized his
office and schedule, worked with administrative associates, handled
a busy domestic and international travel schedule, sustained his
participation in numerous external boards, and kept in regular
contact with alumni and friends of the university. Finally, he
looks at controversial issues, providing an insider's account of
various challenges and crises, from personnel problems to NCAA
sanctions to concerns about presidential succession. During nearly
two decades, Father Malloy met with presidents and movie stars,
sports legends, benefactors, and university employees, many of whom
are mentioned in this book. Throughout this volume, Malloy's love
for Notre Dame and its students, faculty, and staff comes through
clearly, along with his overwhelming sense of gratitude for the
opportunity to lead a university where faith, community, and
service are taken seriously and passed on from one generation to
the next.
