In this special interview from the 2023 Duc In Altum Summit, Bishop Thomas Daly shares his path to where he is today as the Chairman of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops Committee on Catholic Education.

Dr. Richard Ludwick, president of University of St. Thomas-Houston, and Bishop Daly, bishop in the Diocese of Spokane, Wash., discuss why Catholic education is crucial for Catholics and the wider world. Bishop Daly describes Catholic school as "essential" in this day and age and shares how Catholics can be "zealous without being zealots."

This interview took place at the Duc In Altum Summit in October 2023 at Catholic University of America in Washington D.C. Duc In Altum Schools Collaborative, an association of Catholic schools striving for a faith-centered culture, offers an annual summit for professional development for Catholic school and diocesan leaders.
