In 2004, the university decided to change its name from Catholic University of Nijmegen to the more inclusive name Radboud University Nijmegen, honoring Saint Radboud of Utrecht. Following that decision, the university increasingly struggled with the interference of the Catholic Church. The Church saw the university becoming more secular and refused to accept appointments of non-Catholic individuals to the Radboud Executive Board. As of 15 November 2020, the Bishops’ Conference of the Netherlands decided to revoke the designation Catholic from Radboud’s supervisory body, meaning that the university is no longer entitled to receive subsidies from the Church and present itself as Roman Catholic.
