North Quad hopes to see ATM in future
By KATE WALTER


   North Quad residents soon might have an ATM machine close to home.

Student government and administration representatives currently are working with Notre Dame Federal Credit Union to get a 24-hour money machine installed at an undetermined North Quad location.

Michael Fierro, Coalition Council representative, said he believes students on North Quad should have access to an ATM.

"We want an ATM that is more convenient for those living on North Quad and also that is safe," Fierro said.

An NDFCU-supported machine is preferred because, unlike a KeyBank ATM, users are not issued a monthly surcharge, Fierro said.

Though Fierro has not met with bank officials, NDFCU president Leo Ditchcreek said he will consider a proposal.

"If it makes sense, we'll be very interested in looking into it," Ditchcreek said.

Fierro, Hall President's Council co-president Brian Rigney and assistant vice president for Residence Life Bill Kirk plan to meet with NDFCU representatives next week.

Currently, NDFCU supports ATMs in the Hesburgh Library and at bookstore. These machines are only accessible during those locations' hours of operation.

NDFCU also has a 24-hour ATM outside Reckers.
