Sept. 11: The Notre Dame family
On the one
week anniversary of the terrorist attacks, I had two gentlemen visit my
office. As we were sitting down, they both noticed my computer screen
saver that continually scrolls, "God, Country and Notre Dame." The first
visitor asked if I had done this in response to the attacks. I said no,
I had installed it the day I set up my computer. The second visitor asked,
given the recent circumstances, if would be more appropriate to change
the phrase to, "God, Country and Family." I replied that if he had seen
the outdoor Mass held on campus with 10,000 students and faculty in attendance,
or if he had been a graduate of Our Lady's University, he would understand
that Notre Dame truly means Family.
