Subject: Cardinal Dulles

In a post below discussing this years commencement speaker BFG brought up a thought about how, considering the recent events in Rome it would have been interesting to have Cardinal Dulles as the speaker. I was going to reply in that thread but felt that it would have gotten lost. So I have a question for the board, what role does the Cardinal play in events like commencement and considering his age and the tremendous prestige he brings to the University how and when should he be honored at an event like Commencement? I know of no other American Catholic University with an eminent and still active faculty member with the office of Cardinal. It is a tremendous honor for Fordham but unlikely to be repeated by us or another school. I remember at the time of his election to office there were ceremonies on campus and that he has a prominent role as the holder of an endowed faculty chair. However what is the best way to salute him and does he have an ongoing role at major University events?
