Who is part of our family?

lettertotheeditor | Wednesday, December 7, 2022

The University of Notre Dame has always been my dream school. I chose to attend this university over others because as soon as I set foot on campus, it felt like home.  Notre Dame encourages us to do soul-searching and become who we want to be. In this, I finally came out and accepted myself

Letter to the Editor | Tuesday, February 25, 2020

On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the On Wednesday, Notre Dame students will take to the polls and elect their new student body president. A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
