Notre Dame has taken a less active role in economic develop ment in South Bend. When asked whether the local economic-development agency in South Bend looks to Notre Dame for leadership, Project Future executive director Pat McMahon said simply, "No." With South Bend (population 107,789) transitioning out of the manufacturing economy and into one based on health care, educa tion and financial services, Notre Dame plays a huge role in the local economy, McMahon said. And he said Hatch has been one of two people at Notre Dame who discussed with his group how to get research out of the university and into the community, particu larly in the sciences and engineer ing departments. Mark Eagan, the president of the local Chamber of Commerce, said Notre Dame has stepped up its community involvement over the last decade, taking part in efforts to revitalize housing and keep young people in the area. The school and city leaders are also involved in plans for develop ing a technology park. But a local corporate leader who has worked with Hatch on a number of community projects said anyone expecting him to take a front-and-center role in local economic development could be disappointed. "He's not a drum beater," said Chris Murphy, chairman of 1st Source Corp. and 1st Source Bank. "If people want him to jump to the front of the parade, he's not going to do that. He's a quiet, sen sitive leader."
