	Edward Sorin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the time of Father Sorin's ordination, glowing reports of missionary enterprise in foreign lands had fired afresh the hearts of French clergy, and inspired numerous vocations, not a few of which were those of future martyrs, particularly in China and Japan.
		It was to the first of these countries that the Abbé Sorin felt attracted; and to the end of his long life accounts of the trials and triumphs of Chinese missionaries had for him a singular fascination.
		Father Sorin was elected superior-general of his order in 1868, and held this important office during the rest of his life.

	Edward Sorin: A Man with a Mission
		The Notre Dame emeritus professor of history also was fortunate because he understands French, Sorin's native language, which was invaluable in translating the several thousand pages of correspondence O'Connell gathered at the Holy Cross congregation's archives in Rome.
		From the November 1842 arrival of Sorin in South Bend to his death and burial at ND in 1893, Notre Dame and Sorin are almost inseparable.
		Sorin's devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, says O'Connell, was "the guiding light of his life." Along with Sorin's deep sense of a "divine mandate," O'Connell notes, he was aided by his unerring practicality.

	H-Net Review: William Doherty on Edward Sorin
		Edward Sorin (1814-1893), Congregation Sainte Croix (C.S.C.), is best known as the founder of the University of Notre Dame, yet his life is also crucial to any history of Holy Cross in North America and in Europe, the origins of St. Mary's College for women, and the American Roman Catholic Church in the nineteenth century.
		Sorin was far from being the only one who sinned against charity; when it comes to malice, the clergy need no lessons from the laity.
		Sorin routinely censored all mail and when one was given permission to leave on a trip, the luggage was always examined.

	Reverent look at ND lore - The Boston Globe
		Father Sorin, who was born in France in 1814, established the school in South Bend, Ind., in 1842.
		Sorin, who was devoted to Mary, the Mother of God, named the school Notre Dame du Lac -- ''Our Lady of the Lake." Sorin was the rock upon which the school was built, and his leadership was never more evident than in 1879, when a devastating fire destroyed much of the campus.
		Sorin told the community, ''Tomorrow we will begin again and build it bigger, and when it is built, we will put a gold dome on top with a golden statue of the Mother of God so that everyone who comes this way will know to whom we owe whatever great future this place has."

		Father Sorin’s mission and inspiration were thoroughly and indisputably Catholic, but from the beginning he made it clear that would-be students of any religious persuasion were welcome; indeed, that Notre Dame’s student body eventually would become overwhelmingly Catholic was more a reflection of American culture than of parochialism on the University’s part.
		It is a telling act that throughout Notre Dame’s history, and increasingly in recent years, many eminent scholars of various faith traditions have made the University their home simply because they have preferred to work in a community of learning where belief is not merely tolerated, but in fact is celebrated.
		Father Sorin’s dream was predicated on his conviction that a university would be a powerful force for good in this land that he embraced as his own.
