Dean Mary Gallagher sits on the set of For Good: Stories from Notre Dame

Mary Gallagher, the Marilyn Keough Dean of the Keough School of Global Affairs, recognized something distinctive about Notre Dame from the moment she arrived—the University’s unique ability to lead on the global stage with vision and purpose, guided by its Catholic mission and its unwavering commitment to human dignity.

In this episode of For Good, Gallagher reflects on the Keough School’s first decade, the opportunities to build on its strong foundations, and the School’s integral role in helping Notre Dame become the leading global Catholic research university.

Join us as Dean Gallagher shares her vision for the future of the Keough School—and explains why the world needs Notre Dame’s leadership now more than ever.

New episodes of For Good: Stories from Notre Dame drop on select weekdays at giving.nd.edu/stories and the ND Loyal YouTube channel. You can also listen to the podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
