Proving we are a "family"
Letter to the Editor


   I wish to praise the actions of all Notre Dame students and I know I am not just speaking for myself. I am sure many were equally shocked and pleased at the turnout today.

Thank you! To all who came to show their support for Conor Murphy: I have never been so proud to be a part of the Notre Dame community as I am today.

The way that students have responded to one of our own in need is overwhelming. I stood today in LaFortune and felt tears sting my eyes as I saw how many students came to show their support for Conor Murphy. Hundreds more students than the local Junior League volunteers could handle turned out for the bone marrow drive today at LaFortune. It is a shame that people had to be turned away.

I want to thank everyone who came today to show their love and support for a fellow Notre Dame student. I thank God that I am here amongst so many wonderful people. We should all be proud of the Notre Dame family today. Thank you.
