Australian Catholic University faces potential Vatican intervention over conflicts on Catholic values.

The Australian Catholic University (ACU) is embroiled in a controversy that could lead to Vatican intervention. The dispute centers on the university's commitment to Catholic values, triggered by a controversial graduation speech by Joe de Bruyn and the hiring of a law dean with pro-abortion views. Bishops in Sydney and Melbourne want the removal of the university's leadership, while Brisbane bishops support them. The conflicts have raised questions about the university's Catholic identity and could result in a loss of funding and its Catholic designation.
