"Markers" for Catholic law schools

Thanks very much to Fr. Araujo for his extremely helpful post on Catholic law schools.  We've taken up, and returned to, many times here at MOJ the question, "what does it mean to be, and what are the markers of, a meaningfully 'Catholic' law school?"  Fr. Araujo's post raises these questions again, and in a very thoughtful way.

He surfaces at least two points that, it seems to me, are clearly correct:  First, to say that a law school cares about ethics, or is committed to social justice, or aspires to intellectual rigor is not to say that a law school is "Catholic" (though, obviously, a Catholic law school should be all of these things), but only to say that a law school is not lousy.  Second, whether or not a law school is meaningfully "Catholic" depends crucially on its faculty and administrators and their ideals and commitments.

Let me propose, as a complement to Fr. Araujo's post, a few more theses, which I hope others will address and criticize:  First, a law school is not meaningfully "Catholic" if Catholic faith and teaching -- broadly understood, of course -- is not present in the school's intellectual and in-class life.  (That is, a chapel, a clinic, a Christian Legal Society, a death-penalty-abolition group . . . a Catholic law school should have all of these, but they are not enough, and they do not make a law school "Catholic").

Second, for a law school to be meaningfully "Catholic" there must be an overwhelming embrace by the faculty -- whether Catholic or not, whether religious or not -- of the idea that it matters, and is a good thing, for there to be in the arena of legal education meaningfully "Catholic" law schools.  (This does not mean, of course, that the faculty will be entirely, or perhaps even predominantly, Catholic, or that there will be agreement on the particulars of what it means to be a "Catholic" law school; it means that there will be agreement that it matters to be a Catholic law school).

Thoughts?
