Accounting Professor George Viger and his wife, Jane, "adopted"
Hawaiian students who felt far from home when they arrived
in Indiana. Michael Dandurand, a 1984 ND graduate, remembers
their warm welcome in My
Notre Dame Parents.
The notice of the Christmas day 2004 passing of Professor
Edward Cronin of the Program of Liberal Studies brought fond
memories to J. Timothy O'Reilly, a 1961 ND graduate, who writes
of Professor Cronin's legacy.
1984 ND graduate Louis Glunz decided his 20th reunion deserved
more than a passing nod, so he bicycled from Chicago to Notre
Dame last June to participate in the event. In "The
Long Way Back," he reflects on his road trip.
Bob Walsh, a 1948 ND graduate, takes a nostalgic turn in
his essay"Max Marek:
The Notre Dame Man Who Beat Joe Louis." Marek participated
in the Bengal Bouts at Notre Dame before leaving in 1935 to
turn pro.
