Broken Yolk name case rolls on
By Benjamin Lockwood

After former University President the Rev. Scott Pilarz expressed doubts about his fundraising abilities following his resignation, the presidential search committee will focus on fundraising skills as an integral criterion for the job. The committee met Monday, Jan. 20 to discuss its narrowing pool of candidates. William Cullinan, dean of the College of Health Sciences and member of the presidential search committee, said in an email that fundraising is “nearly always a factor in attracting a university president, though one of many criteria.” A study done in 2012 by the Council of Independent Colleges cites fundraising as one of private university presidents’ most time-consuming tasks. About 82 percent of presidents surveyed from private universities ranked fundraising above every other responsibility. Pilarz mentioned fundraising in his September resignation letter to students. “First, I believe that Marquette needs a president who is willing to commit to working wholeheartedly on a comprehensive capital campaign over a five to seven year period,” he said in the letter. “Given my other hopes and desires, I am not in a position to do that now.” Marilyn Frenn, chairman of the University Academic Senate, said Interim University President the Rev. Robert A. Wild did particularly well with fundraising during his time in office preceding Pilarz. “I do know that there were long lines of donors waiting to shake Fr. Wild’s hand at the President’s Picnic each year,” Frenn said in an email. “And those who have donated to Marquette have told me they liked him.” The Tribune reported in 2010 that Wild raised $725 million during his previous tenure as president of Marquette, and was praised for garnering unprecedented financial contributions from donors. Pilarz had a much shorter tenure as president, though he did oversee the completion of the new See Fundraising, Page 4

the same as theirs.” Gatto has not heard much from the restaurant itself, but he said he thinks the rationale for trying to eradicate rival diners is to draw more traffic online. “They’re trying to clear up the Internet so that they’re the only Broken Yolk on the Internet,” Gatto said. “They could care less about two little coffee shops in Milwaukee, but on the Internet you’re available
to the public and they want to clean that up and be the only ones with that name.” Gatto explained that the local attorney who is representing The Broken Yolk Café said the California restaurant petitioned to trademark the name in 2008. “At this point, my argument is you might be OK to have me change the name at Campustown See BroYo, Page 2

Jim Gatto, owner of both Broken Yolks on Wisconsin Avenue and Wells Street, said he is fighting for his restaurants’ naming rights. “My rebuttal to that is I have been using The Broken Yolk and Sandwich Shoppe for 12 years,” Gatto said. “The name is not the same as theirs and the logo is not

said he thinks individuals should remember that, although the records were released Jan. 21, 95 percent of the accusations happened before 1988. The Catholic Church, he said, came a long way since then. “Culturally, (we’ve been) quiet about issues of sexual abuse for decades and decades,” Topczewski said. “It just wasn’t something you talked about 50 years ago. That changed with the widespread publicity of sexual abuse by clergy in the Catholic Church.” That publicity prompted archdioceses across the country to implement programs intended to
create safe environments within the Catholic Church. “Almost every diocese in the country has some version of a safe environment program,” Topczewski said. “If you went to Madison, they may have a different title for it or they may use different materials.” The Archdiocese of Milwaukee requires all of its diocesan priests, deacons, parish workers, paid personnel and volunteers who regularly work with young people to complete the “Safeguarding All of God’s Family” training program. The training focuses on protecting children in the Catholic
Church and identifying possible situations that could cause harm. Participants are required to attend safe-environment education sessions, complete a criminal background check, sign the Code of Ethical Standards and read a Mandatory Reporting Statement. Patti Loehrer, coordinator of the “Safeguarding All of God’s Family” program, said the training increases the awareness of diocesean employees to sensitive issues. “People will question their surroundings more and keep
