University of Notre Dame Registrar Harold L. Pace (L) and Chairman Richard C. Notebaert (R) place a hood on President Barack Obama as he is awarded an honorary degree during the commencement ceremony at Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana on May 17, 2009. Notre Dame's award of an honorary law degree to Obama caused an uproar among Roman Catholics because his views on abortion are in direct conflict with church teaching. (UPI Photo/Brian Kersey)
