Inside
- Except acceptance (Kiflin Turner Copy Editor)
College. As a highschool student I would think about that word and what it meant for hours. I had spent my whole life going to school, studying, preparing for the opportunity to attain something more — the path to knowledge. This is not knowledge in the form of memorizing facts and rhetoric, but a knowledge centered on experiences, a quest to redefine and question all that I am and all that others may or may not be.

- Announcing forum on ticket distribution (Letter to the Editor )
Since the last official "Football Ticket Camp-Out" in the fall of 1998, the administration of the University of Notre Dame sought to change the mechanism by which students receive their football tickets. In the wake of this decision, the administration appealed for student input. The outcome of this action was a collaboration between Student Government, the Class Councils and the administration. Following the 1999 event, which occurred within Notre Dame Stadium, students expressed discontent with the new "Football Ticket Camp-Out" system. Consequently, a commission was formed with administration officials and the Student Union. The subsequent outcome of this commission work came to a fruition with the Aug. 21 ticket distribution that occurred at Stepan Center.
