Reflections

When Amanda (Dodd) Miller'99 and her twin sister, Lacy Dodd '99, sought scholarships to attend Notre Dame, they found them through the Army. So the two arrived at Notre Dame in 1995 as students and cadets in the University's Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps. Miller writes about her experiences with the military in "On God, Country, Notre Dame."

Frederick Jamroz Jr. '60 had a special affinity for Mary and for Notre Dame, writes his daughter Anne M. Jamroz-Garrett. In "The Blessed Mother Comes Full Circle," she talks about the feelings Notre Dame evoked in her father and the Jamroz family.
