Il a été le 15e président de l'université Notre-Dame-du-Lac de 1952 à 1987. Theodore Martin Hesburgh, CSC, (* 25. Mai 1917 in Syracuse, New York; † 26. Februar 2015 in South Bend, Indiana) war ein römisch-katholischer Priester und Universitätsprofessor. Er war von 1952 bis 1987 Präsident der University of Notre Dame in Indiana. Theodore Martin Hesburgh, CSC (May 25, 1917 – February 26, 2015) was a native of Syracuse, New York, who became an ordained priest of the Congregation of Holy Cross and is best known for his service as the president of the University of Notre Dame for thirty-five years (1952–1987). In addition to his career as an educator and author, Hesburgh was a public servant and social activist involved in numerous American civic and governmental initiatives, commissions, international humanitarian projects, and papal assignments. Hesburgh received numerous honors and awards for his service, most notably the United States's Presidential Medal of Freedom (1964) and Congressional Gold Medal (2000). As of 2013, he also held the world's record for the individual with most honorary degrees with more than 150. Hesburgh is credited with bringing Notre Dame, long known for its football program, to the forefront of American Catholic universities and its transition to a nationally respected institution of higher education. He supervised the university's dramatic growth, as well as the successful transfer of its ownership from Holy Cross priests to the Notre Dame Board of Trustees in 1967. During his tenure as president, the university also became a coeducational institution. In addition to his service to Notre Dame, Hesburgh held leadership positions in numerous groups involved in civil rights, peaceful uses of atomic energy, immigration reform, and Third World development. Hesburgh was also active on the boards of numerous businesses, nonprofits, civic organizations, and Vatican missions. Theodore Martin Hesburgh, CSC (Syracuse, 25 mei 1917 – , 26 februari 2015) was een priester van de Congregatie van het Heilig Kruis en was van 1952 tot 1987 de rector van de universiteit van Notre Dame. Naar hem is de Hesburgh Award en de Hesburgh Library van deze universiteit vernoemd. Na studies aan Notre Dame werd hij door zijn seminarie voor vervolmakingsstudies naar Rome gestuurd. Bij het uitbreken van de Tweede Wereldoorlog kon hij Italië tijdig verlaten. Hij studeerde af als Doctor in Sacred Theology aan de Katholieke Universiteit van Amerika in 1945 en kreeg een docentenpositie aan Notre Dame. Reeds in 1949 werd hij er executive vicepresident om in 1952 tot president benoemd te worden. Hij wordt vermeld in het Guinness Book of Records als titelhouder van het grootst aantal eretitels die hem werden toegekend, 150 in totaal. In 1964 ontving hij de Presidential Medal of Freedom, in 1999 de Congressional Gold Medal. Hij ontving talrijke eredoctoraten waaronder in 1978 een van de Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. In 1993 speelde hij een rolletje als priester in de film Ruby. Father Hesburgh relativeerde onderwijs ooit met de quote: "Education is the only thing people are willing to pay for and not get." In 2007 sprak hij zich uit voor het opnieuw toelaten van het huwelijk voor priesters. In februari 2015 overleed hij op 97-jarige leeftijd.
