According to Grok, there are three living U.S. bishops who are alumni of University of Notre Dame:
- William Albert Wack, Bishop of the Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee, Florida (active).
B.A. (1989) and M.Div. (1993) from the University of Notre Dame. - Michael J. Boulette, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of the Archdiocese of San Antonio, Texas (resigned 2025 upon reaching age 75; remains a living bishop).
M.Th./Master of Divinity (1975) from the University of Notre Dame. - Denis J. Madden, Auxiliary Bishop Emeritus of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, Maryland (retired 2015; remains a living bishop).
Ph.D. in clinical psychology from the University of Notre Dame.
Several bishops have rightfully condemned the University’s appointment of abortion advocate Susan Ostermann as director of the school’s Liu Institute for Asia and Asian Studies. But noticeably absent from this list are the alumni bishops of the University.
